-Scien
and Klor-
have been big on the graffiti scene since
1989. When they discovered Neville Brody’work
on typography, graphic art became a logical extension
of their graffiti writing.
They produced their first digital graffiti pieces, and 123klan were the first to blend graffiti writing and graphic art on the web, making it not just anexhibition tool but a new creative medium.
The screen, like a blank wall became a space to be laid out. In parallel, the influence of graphic art could be seen on their walls; everything revolved around lettering. For these trailblazers, graffiti writing and graphic art are closely linked and, as they say
themselves, “ Style is the message.”
