Childhood car trips around the country exposed gmo$ to roadside attraction signs and billboards, which have inspired her brightly painted combinations of word and image. As a student in New York, street art caught her eye because tags, stencils and wheat pastes are able to cut through the visual overload of city life in much the same way as signs and billboards. As hip-hop began its rise to mainstream consciousness, gmo$ worked as an art director for Profile Records, which began the careers of Run-DMC. Gmo$ sometimes works as an illustrator and has an international client base. She has participated in group shows at Dam Stuhltrager and Supreme Trading, and now resides in Brooklyn.
