August has been a busy month. The big guns of the graffiti-turned-artist world have been at it this month, with the likes of Os Gemeos, Espo, and Andre all working on major projects around the world. Not surprisingly, their work is our focus in this edition of our "10 Biggest Graffiti Moments Of The Month." We also look at what some of the significant writers around the world have been up to lately, a reminder that not all major graffiti moments come in gallery or museum spaces.

The finished mural has yet to hit the inter webs, but the early stages shown on Instagram & YouTube look look like this could be one of the most impressive murals of 2012. Aryz is one of the few graffiti artist in the world who can compete on this scale with the Twins from Sao Paolo, so the final outcome is sure to be amazing.

Watch the video to here Os Gemeos' take on the project.
