Repo is a recent transplant to Columbus from the beautiful city of Minneapolis where he spent the last 30 years working in a variety of media including painting, glassblowing, and printmaking. During this time, he has also used street art as a method to make his images accessible and public. Putting up handmade posters and stickers in unsanctioned places like the backs of signs and derelict infrastructure, he hopes to insert a brief flash of joy and autonomy in an otherwise commodified city landscape. Joy, playfulness, and levity are common themes within Repo’s work. Like so many others, he experiences life in today's world as overwhelming and burdensome but believes that a touch of pleasure or brief moment of nonsense can break through the haze of everyday reality. Repo's work has been shown at Minneapolis’ Gamut Gallery, Legacy Glassworks, and and above his parent's mantelpiece. His work has been included in the Minneapolis LynnLake Street Art Series, the Spectrum Street Art Festival in New Zealand, and the Con Artists Collective in New York.

Yorckh is a seasoned graphic designer, artist and international muralist. Having lived all across Mexico, based in Columbus Ohio, he draws inspiration for his craft and art from prehispanic culture, nature, and all the colors and textures he encounters in his vibrant country.

While he specializes in branding, digital design and editorial work, we often find him hanging on the side of a wall immersed in a large mural and collaborating with lifestyle apparel brands.
