Spraying Bricks ventured south of the river to an abandoned, soon to be demolished, 5 storey Edwardian building. Standing outside the townhouse there was a feeling of desertion, but as you walk through the door of
the Brixton property it is clear to see that ID-IOM have made their mark. With their studio situated in the basement, and their canvas being the entire building, the two brothers have established a creative hub that has no limits or restrictions. With very little space left to paint, Spraying Bricks were fortunate enough to capture a glimpse of the process these guys go through on a daily basis within the house of
paint.
ID-IOM are a collective based in Brixton. Originally
from the Isle Of Man, brothers Hugo and Sholto adopted their name from
their late, father's art supplies shop. However, their father was not
the only person to influence them in their lives. Their mother was a
seamstress, and their older brother was the person responsible for
exposing them to graffiti culture. With a creative gene running in the
family, it is unsurprising that Hugo and Sholto have taken the path they
have. Since moving to London, Hugo's and Sholto's work has developed
and progressed ten-fold, with unique techniques and styles which ensures
that their work is recognisable and stands out from the crowd.
