MOTS is a duo of urban artists from Portugal and Poland created by Diogo Ruas, painter and illustrator, and Jagoda Cierniak, photographer and project coordinator. Their collaboration merges their individual approaches characterized by Diogo’s experience as an urban artist and Jagoda’s engagement in social grassroots initiatives and art projects.

MOTS have created dozens of murals. Their works have been featured in a number of publications, urban art festivals and group and solo art shows hosted all over Europe. The couple’s amazement with the abstract and realistic margins is clearly evident in their works that include canvas, large-scale murals and interdisciplinary photography projects.
