Dmote


Until recently many may not have been aware of the artist Dmote but in his homeland of Australia he is not just a badboy graffiti artist but an accomplished artist who's who apart from bombing the odd wall takes in screen printing, acrylic and sculpture. You may not be aware of the name but if you shop with The Urban Shop you may have already bought his designs because is has done work for both Insight and Schwipe both brands from his homeland and now Dmote as become part of the RVCA Artist Network Program ANP and this season sees the inclusion of allover prints on linings of jacket pocket bags in jeans and all over printed reversible hoodies.



Graffiti World by N Ganz has this to say about Dmote: "Dmote is a pioneer of the old Australian graffiti scene and is known for his ever-changing styles. Influenced by New York's semi-wildstyle, which started to emerge in the early 1980s, Dmote create his own individual versions with new techniques and current trends in mind. He has also been working on commissions and gets involved in exhibitions."
