RESK12 is a young rising multi-disciplinary artist from Brazil, a self-proclaimed explorer, and a rebel at his core. The designer first started graffiti in his teenage years and has been spreading his signature all over the world ever since. Sustained by his curiosity and driven by a restless desire for improvement, endlessly shaping and refining his style. As he documents countless adventures and creative experiences on video, the writer has piqued people’s interest and inspired many with his work.

Typography, bright graphics, abstract elements, and multifaceted use of letters. All are anchored in a never-ending dialogue with his subconscious mind, the propelling force behind his pieces, and their most outstanding features. Playing with his mind’s ability to orchestrate colors, shapes, and lines in a manner that evokes a constant discovery of feelings and ideas that engage with one another; in the streets and out of them. 

He first picked up a can of spray paint in his early days as a kid in the streets of southern Brazil, amongst friends and surrounded by skate culture. The discovery of what it was like to create with various possibilities of writing his own name in countless shaping forms, a mix and match of geometric form and language itself, called his attention early on, as the world of graffiti began to unfold before his eyes and henceforth never ceased to do so.
