DON RIMIX

“El mal con bien se apaga ”

Mural en Jefferson St y st Nicholas Ave en Bushwick , brooklyn , NY .

“The evil with good goes out”

Mural in Jefferson St and St Nicholas Ave in Bushwick, Brooklyn, NY.

20 ‘x 40’

David “Don Rimx” Sepulveda was born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico.  His family lived in the public housing development, Nemesio R Canales, who in the 90s had a very high crime rate.  Drugs and gun violence were a part of his everyday life.  Through his parents watchful eyes Don Rimx was kept on the straight and narrow. They noticed his interest in drawing at a young age and nurtured it by enrolling him in weekend art classes at the local art school.  He later received his diploma from the Central High School of Visual Arts and went on to continue his education at the Escuela de Artes Plasticas.  Upon finishing his studies, he dedicated himself to incorporating the various techniques of classic art into urban art, with a specialization in murals. Lorenzo Homar, Jose Alicea, Rafael Tufino, Rembrandt, and Joaquin Sorolla, are just a few of the influences one see’s in the line work, color treatment and poetic imagery of his pieces.

In 2009, Don Rimx moved to Brooklyn, NY.  Life in the big city had a profound affect on his latest works, from the different cultures and styles to the many textures and materials.  The skeletal structures explore the synthesis of man and his city.  Resulting in works of art comprised of rigidity and personality.

“16 Barras” Brooklyn was an exploration of this connection.  Murals were painted throughout Brooklyn, of randomly chosen residents, interlaced with one number and word, that when put in numerical order, created a poem. It was meant to inspire people to search for the pieces to the puzzle, to get to know their borough and its residents. “16 Barras” received media coverage in the NY Daily News and various online publications. The concept was later extended to Puerto Rico and featured in the annual art event ‘La Campechada.’

Don’s also participated in national and international urban beautification projects like Artists for Israel, Los Muros Hablan New York & Puerto Rico and Art Basel Miami in the Wynwood Design District. Additionally he’s painted many murals around Brooklyn, at the Bushwick Collective and at the former 5Pointz Queens.

Don’s individual style bridged the gap between the streets and corporate America. His work caught the eye of a progressive commercial real estate developer and was commissioned to produce several grand scale murals in the Bryant Park area of NYC. The synthesis of the two resulted in breathtaking works of art. An arrangement so unique it received media coverage in the NY Times.

In the summer of 2014, Don Rimx and his family made the move to Miami Florida. The warm climate, Latino culture and large arts presence really attracted the artist, making him feel a little closer to home. Since the move Don was invited to the Brooklyn Museum as the guest artist for National Hispanic Heritage Month and has worked on a couple of projects with the Jordan sneaker brand. In the Miami area, he was one of the featured artists in the Cars Meet Art exhibit of the Miami Auto Show. And is currently one of 15 artists participating in the Beck’s Urban Canvas.

Don Rimx’s unparalleled artistry has set him apart from the rest; a classically trained fine artist, graffiti purist, grand scale muralist and new school tattoo artist. No matter the medium, he’s guaranteed to continue doing what he loves for many years to come.

DJ, Producer, Mechanical Engineer

The character of DVJ KING ARTHUR was released in 2009 by a Mechanical Engineer student named Arturo Hernandez Padin. Who has also 11 years of experience in the music business. The name of DVJ KING ARTHUR its related to his creator, since the name of the ”DVJ” stands for Disc Video Jockey, ”King” stands for a Puertorrican Holiday (The 3 Magic Kings Eve” on January 5 which its the date Arturo was born and ”Arthur” stands for its name.

DVJ King Arthur’s costume is based on the King Arthur armor back in the days of history but with a creative robotic design. This futuristic character is always ready for a new battle, always ready for a new party, always ready to make an impressive show. The helmet and suit was designed and build by himself, applying his knowledge as a mechanical engineer to add to it special features like night vision, lasers, blue eyes, temperature control, air replacement system. His armor is white and frosted which stands out the reflection of its own suit multicolor lights. All of this design were created with not only the purpose of entertain the people but also to make them wonder and imagine ?? how can he do that? ?? and to promote the fact that we all can do all that we dream of, we just have to try to do it.

DVJ King Arthur has a passion for electronic music but his specialty is Electro, House and Dubstep. This choice of gender is because it has more synth sounds with an aggressive beat that always get the crowd going. He believes that electronic music will help make the world a better and happier place. King Arthur is the resident DJ of the weekly television show called Adrenalina Sin Frenos (ASF) every tuesday night on Univision Puerto Rico since 2009. He is always trying to make the crowd jump to the beat, playing special mixes by adding his own touch of ?the beat? standing out with his unique creativity. A perfect, flawless DJ set its what King Arthur always deliver. He’s personal goal as a DJ its to play and be one of the first 100 DJs of the world on ” The List ” and to be a part of the lineup of the Ultra Music Festival on Miami or Electric Daisy Carnival of Las Vegas.  More info: bookings@dvjkingarthur.com
