Tile Urban Blue Keya TamaThis tile was created on the occasion of Urban Blue – from Bricks to Tiles, the exhibition at the Royal Delft Museum from March 7 to August 23, 2026. This exhibition brings together the worlds of Delft Blue and street art. For this special project, six international street artists, selected by Straat Museum, translate their signature style into the world-famous Delft Blue earthenware.
Six international artists merge tradition and innovation into a contemporary, urban visual language. Claudio Limon, Keya Tama, Madi, Ryol, Speto, and Tja Ling Hu each designed a tile with its own character and story. Together, they form a unique series that invites you to collect.
About Ryol
Yogyakarta-based artist Laksamana Ryo (1993), better known as Ryol, operates within the world of fine art with a strong fascination for pop culture.
He originally dreamed of a career as a musician, but his love for music grew into a broader artistic passion: portraying the cultural influences that shaped his youth. Ryol cites his parents and the many Sunday afternoons filled with television cartoons as decisive for his "early phase." A period in which he learned to deal with freedom and responsibility. These experiences formed the basis for his development into a pop culture artist.
His work reflects a clear vision: painting is his calling, a lifelong search for expression and meaning. At the same time, his ambition reaches beyond the canvas. As an artist, Ryol wants to leave a lasting impression on his generation and leave a tangible mark on the history of contemporary art.

Royal Delft Museum X STRAAT Museum Amsterdam
The subtitle from Bricks to Tiles refers to the creative leap made by six international street artists: from the surfaces they know best to the world-famous earthenware of Royal Delft. During two artistic residencies they brought their own visual language together with the centuries-old tradition of Delft Blue.
The first residency took place in November, when the artists worked live in a temporary studio inside Royal Delft Museum. This produced six monumental tile panels in which the expressive power of street art meets iconic Delft Blue.
In addition, each artist painted a selection of objects from the Royal Delft collection in the characteristic cobalt blue, complemented with polychrome colours and gold decoration. In doing so they made the step from a flat surface to three-dimensional objects.
This special exhibition was created in collaboration with STRAAT Museum Amsterdam, the museum for street art and graffiti on the iconic NDSM wharf. By combining the expertise of both museums, two contrasting art worlds meet in a unique presentation where tradition and contemporary street art come together.
