Mr Jago, (plain Mr to his freinds) is one of the Scrawl Collective founder members and as such is central to the way the agency developed in it's infancy. Not a graffiti artist as such he took the influence of graffiti and ran with it in a completely different direction to everyone else at the time.
Growing up in a small village offered little opportunity for bombing the streets and this led him to draw furiously in countless sketchbooks never knowing at the time where all this activity might lead him. After meeting Will and Steff while studying graphic design in Bristol his path seemed clear and he was soon working regularly for Bristol's ever burgeoning recording and club promoting entrepreneurs. He can truly be described along with Will Barras and Steff as a pioneer of the doodle school that seems to be everywhere these days and is now like graffiti before it an accepted part of our wider visual language. He is as a result, and deservedly so, world famous among his contemporaries in the urban art world and he has earned the right to be talked about in the same breath as some of his own heroes. Most recently he has collaborated on a toy with Addict Clothing and as well as being a regular in their artists t-shirt series he has designed the camo pattern for their latest fabric.
