Onur’s artistic tool of choice is the paint roller. Using it, he is creating photo-realistic imagery, mostly in black and white. His former profession as a scenery painter displays itself in preference for large-scale works. Many of his creations capture moments of every day life, freezing the instant in time. People seem detached from their surroundings in the situations captured and display the most fundamental feelings of human existence.

"Wes21, or Remo Lienhard, is a graffiti artist that was born in Biel, Switzerland in May of 1989. His artistic endeavors started in 2001 when he began to take an interest in painting. Several years later in 2009, Wes21 attended design school, ultimately becoming a graphic designer. This led Wes21 to become a freelance illustrator/designer, engaging in such projects as large scale murals, canvases, and 3D sculptures to add an unpredictable side to what's typically expected of graffiti artists.

Wes21 is constantly working on developing his visual vocabulary and techniques that characterize his work. Specifically, he aims to masterfully unite both worlds of graphic design and contemporary art to deliver an artistic product that is exciting and new for his audience. When observing Wes21's art, you get a sense that there is this intentional collision of sorts between both methods, making his fans really stop and appreciate his best of both worlds. Furthermore, at the forefront of Wes21's works are striking images that are bathed in bold colors and detail. Within his selection of everyday imagery is the incorporation of fantasy elements to add a unique intricacy to his work. Specifically, Wes21 combines images that don't necessarily go together, but make sense when seen as a whole. These symbols are then exaggerated with modern techniques to give a more contemporary feel to his works of art. "
