Os Gêmeos is a Brazilian graffiti-artist duo notable for their large-format paintings of yellow figures. Blending influences of Brazilian folklore, hip-hop culture, political commentary, and personal history — many of their murals and paintings are centered on characters in a self-made fantasy world called “Tritez.”
Os Gemeos is a Portuguese word meaning the twins. The duo street artists are identical twin brothers, namely, Otavio Pandolfo and Gustavo Pandolfo hailing from Sao Paulo, Brazil.
