Lister helped pioneer the street art movement in his home city Brisbane as a teenager, and later in the inner suburbs of Sydney and Melbourne.

[citation needed] Commercially, Lister has worked with various international fashion, lifestyle and technological brands such as Hermès, The Standard Hotel, Westfield, Vogue Australia, Samsung, and Mercedes-Benz.

[citation needed] He has also collaborated with many well-known artists and personalities, including Blek le Rat, Space Invader, Mark "Chopper" Read and Nick Cave.

During the 2024 trial the media referred to Lister only as an unnamed "high-profile Sydney man" and was not permitted to publish other details that could potentially identify him.

The judge who lifted the suppression order in December 2024 disagreed with characterising Lister as high-profile and suggested that he reduce his online presence to avoid further threats.
