Phelgo is a Portuguese activist, novelist and street artist. He is mainly known for the satirical and political stencils he made in Oporto.[1] In the beginning of 2007, he made a website and a series of stencils denouncing the illegal business surrounding Oporto's theatre, Rivoli,[2] which was a national scandal.[3] He is also a promoter of Outubro Justo, an annual fair trade festival in that city, during October,[4] and the author of the online novel boo.boo.ah..
