THE STORY BEHIND THE MIX MASH UP ORANGE
DISCOVER THE STORY BEHIND OUR FAMOUS MIX MASH UP POSTER:
The inspiration and references for this project stem from Katamari Damacy, a Japanese third-person puzzle-action video game. In the game, players must rebuild stars, constellations, and the moon—accidentally destroyed—by rolling a magical, highly adhesive ball called a Katamari. As it moves through various environments, the Katamari collects anything it touches, growing larger until it transforms into a celestial body.
Scien and Klor have transposed this concept into their graffiti universe, as if rolling a highly adhesive Katamari across walls covered in their own artworks. In its path, it gathers the fundamental codes of graffiti—arrows, letters, colors, throw-ups, effects, graphic design elements—as well as their signature mascots, characters, and even fragments of wood from their mural compositions. The result is a massive Mix Mash-up of their creative world.
This mash-up is a fusion of seemingly disparate elements, yet each piece is rooted in their own artistic lineage. Initially hand-drawn, these elements evolve into vector designs before being translated onto canvas. Each Mix Mash-up serves as a window into their body of work—a visual slideshow of their art, their family, and their deep love for graffiti.
Though the compositions may appear chaotic at first glance, every detail is meticulously considered. Before a piece is realized on canvas, each element is placed with surgical precision, guided by the trained eyes of Scien and Klor as graphic designers.
The final result may seem surreal and heavily stylized, rarely mimicking conventional street art. However, every element originates from their own creations—always beginning with hand-drawn sketches, staying true to their roots.
