The graffiti artist Nicklas "Disey Nakano" Dahlquist is dead.

This is confirmed by his family to SVT Cultural News. He was active from the 80s and is called a pioneer in graffiti circles.

In a post on social media, director Tarik Saleh, who himself was involved in the art form, writes that Disey Nakano was one of the artists who influenced him the most: "For us who love graffiti, it's hard to explain what defines a master, it's like you can't put it into words. You just had it – all the way”.

Nicklas ”Disey Nakano” Dahlquist passed away after a period of illness. He was 57 years old.
