Prism is a notable street artist operating out of Melbourne Australia.

Prism first encountered Stencil Art whilst studying in Brazil. He was inspired to produce stencils himself and see where he could take them. He was also inspired by the stencils of Banksy and Blek le Rat. Prism cut his first stencil in 2000 of Australian Prime Minister John Howard, with devil horns. Prism moved to Melbourne in 2001.

In 2002 Prisim set up the website Stencil Revolution which has over 15,000 registered members.

Prism's subject matter and choice of topic varies greatly from stencil to stencil. He has worked with many different mediums including: Freehand Graffiti, characters, sculpture and paste-ups.
