96 Boiz
96 Boiz is a contemporary art collective founded by Orchun96 (Orchun Mert), recognized for developing the 96 Boiz Contour Style, a distinctive artistic language built around expressive contour lines, exaggerated forms, fragmented anatomy, and emotionally driven compositions.
Established in 2025, the collective emerged from a desire to create a recognizable visual identity that combined contemporary figurative art with the accessibility of digital platforms. Through a series of original collections, 96 Boiz developed a body of work characterized by bold linework, dynamic movement, and a commitment to artistic experimentation.
The collective gained international visibility when its first collections surpassed 10 million views on Pinterest, introducing the 96 Boiz Contour Style to audiences across multiple countries. The success of these collections helped establish a growing global audience and contributed to the collective’s recognition within contemporary digital art communities.
Drawing inspiration from Neo-Expressionism, contemporary illustration, urban aesthetics, and modern visual culture, 96 Boiz focuses on creating works that communicate emotion, energy, and individuality. Rather than pursuing realism, the collective explores visual expression through distortion, movement, symbolism, and expressive contour drawing.
At the center of the collective’s artistic identity is the belief that art should be accessible, immediate, and emotionally engaging. This philosophy has shaped the development of the 96 Boiz Contour Style and continues to influence every collection produced by the group.
Today, 96 Boiz continues to expand its archive of original artworks while exploring new directions in contemporary visual art. Through its growing collection of paintings, illustrations, and digital works, the collective remains committed to building a distinctive artistic legacy for a global audience.
