The Brazilian duo Otavio and Gustavo known as “Os Gemeos” (The Twins) are a common reference for anyone with a basic understanding of urban art. They began to draw at the age of 4 and continued to develop their skills and style throughout their entire upbringing. In the 80’s, with the rise of the hip-hop culture the twins began to take matters more seriously. At the time, they were doing it all: fashion, break dancing and tagging. But it was during the 90’s they began to focus and develop the aesthetic they are most well known for today – bright colors, simple silhouettes with detailed shading and characters with angular eyes set apart. Otavio explains the art making process, “We plan the visual story before, then draw it on the wall. We each start at one end and we meet in the middle.” It is a very intuitive process between the two twin brothers because there is no talking involved.
Their most recent project was just completed, replacing a Keith Herring reproduction, land marking the corner of Bowery and Houston, in New York. It was a major attraction to passer byers to see them in their process. We caught up with the brother for a chat and some background. We even got to see some original sketches for this mural, and I wont lie – almost pulled it from Otavio’s hand and ran. lol!
As promised last week (see here), I bring you the new Stampd LA retail Mural, located on the exterior walls of Joyrich at Melrose and Spaulding, in Hollywood. This is the 2º Edition retail mural executed by Stampd LA and it looks absolutely Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!!! The piece is in anticipation for the new Bayside Shoe to drop, but it is a combination of the Numberd’ and Bayside shoe graphics. And to make it even better they have created a time lapse in which Dave Gallegos documents the process > see video below…
I drove by Spaulding and Melrose the other day, after having been in NY all month and was saddened by the blank wall. What was once was a mural painted by Chris Stamp & Co. for the launch of the Stampd’ LA brand back in January, was simply a big white corner. All the questions in my head lead me to the Stampd LA Blog, where I found out that the white wall was all for the love of art and keeping the streets of LA fresh & new. A new wall is in the making! Excited by the news I stopped by yesterday to check out what was going on…The new wall will be a combination of two Stampd’ styles; the Numberd’ and the Bayside Hi (ring a bell?) You can see the new wall formula below… And the wall should be fully up by end of day today!

“Disaster in Littleland” is one of the brilliant stories fabricated, by the London based artist known as Slinkachu, for his blog Little People. Slinkachu spends a lot of his time setting up miniature sets throughout London which seem frighteningly real when photographed. Often times he leaves his Little People in their set around the city for people to discover. There is also a book called Little People in the City: The Street Art of Slinkachu which is definitly worth a visit.
