The event ‘Style Discipline’ is an international graffiti festival that takes place on the island of Puerto Rico. The three-day jam was originally founded to memorialize the lives of two of recently-deceased Puerto Rican graffiti writers, Pun18 and Scan. RVCA ANP artists Dmote and Ewok add their touch to the streets and walls of the island’s biggest cities.

NEW BOOK IN THE SHOP: DMOTE – I’M OVER HERE

The graffiti writing subculture isn’t easily digested by the mainstream. The actions and movements of those involved are internal and directed only at our peers and our shared ethos and intentions are very rarely discussed outside this tight group. Our lifestyle is diverse and undefined; we are ageless, without specific race or gender and not determined by economic backgrounds, nationality or geography. We are unconventional travellers. The one thing that levels and unites us is the love to write our names again and again both locally and internationally.

This project is a glimpse of my travels, friendships, style and shows a momentary escape from my daily life.

In this latest edition of 12oz Sessions we’ve once again brought top-tier talent into the studio; this round with Australian-born artist DMOTE. For those of you living under a rock, if you aren’t up on who DMOTE is, it might be due to the fact that he’s also been consistently prolific writing SHANK.
DMOTE aka SHANK has been writing graffiti for nearly three decades and continues to elevate his game, which is undoubtedly expected from one of the culture’s most infamous Prime Suspects.

Name: Dmote a.k.a Syd Steelo 
Crew: PS 
City / Country: Living in New York, USA 
When did you start writing: 1985 

What’s graffiti for you: I love the act of spraying, that feeling. I’m forever trying to make something cool/something that I’m happy with. Chasing that to me is the never ending drive that keeps me going, and at this point free-styling pieces is the key to eliminate the static caused by a piece of paper between you and the wall is important to gain maximum flow. 

Influences: Thats forever changing but i talk to a few like minded people that make you realise your on the right path. Exchanging ideas, history and feedback is growing us all. I’m also aware of the young writers from all over, these are the dudes that are making most of the new moves, ideas and keeping this interesting. I see a lot of older writers that just don’t see or get that, I think that inhibits them and keeps their style in the past. 

Quantity vs quality: A combo of both is the pinnacle but I’m definitely trying to make quality and make everything I do count, from tags to burners everything matters. 

What keeps you still writing: Competition and that I still love the art form and energy of making graffiti. 

Future plans: Living each day as it comes right now, wanna make more of a solid body of work in my studio and stay painting graffiti.
