In August, after having been in Portugal, i’ve been invited to be part of the LIVING WALLS festival in ATLANTA, USA. I went there in order to paint a huge wall but we had some problems before started…so my brother Ripo proposed me to share a wall with him. We both knew our work but we never really had work together before.
We decided to play with letters because we both love it.
We used all the letters of our names R.E.M.E.D.R.I.P.O in order to create an anagram that would give another sense to these letters we choosed to represent our art & self.
And the association of words POEM RIDER came out.
We alterned one letter each and already knew even styles are different the connection is there. Hope u’ll enjoy it as we did.
