“Dulk puts his money where his mouth is. Not only does he spread a powerful message in support of nature with his Urban Artivism — he also donates part of his earnings from merch to WWF. Another reason to visit his striking work in person at the STRAAT Museum”.

-WWF International Organisation 

If you don't protect nature, it will desappear

“Urban Artivism” at STRAAT Museum was a perfect occasion to defend the conservation of our natural environment. For this reason a percentage of earnings generated by the sale of Dulk’s merchandising in the museum itself was donated to WWF who invest all their energy in defending and protecting our nature.
