 SUPERVAN

Vanessa, Super Van or simply Van. I’m bit of everything. I’ve studied graphic design, advertising and illustration. Eternally unsatisfied and a perfectionist, illustration currently takes up most of my time. My drawings are mostly characters that have forced my hand to give them life. They are hundreds already and are all around, screaming, dancing, flying or trying to pay the taxes. Outside 2D life, I keep my eyes constantly open, looking at images, conversations, particularities, which are then poured into my work, as haiku poems that tell us in half words and half tones how people really are. I also find inspiration in my african roots (born in Cape Town, South Africa), comic books, tattoos and urban art. I try to give my illustrations a strong personality and vibrant colours. They have a distinctive and unique style always with a dash of spicy humour and sensuality. Feel free to say hi, feedback is always welcome!

BTOY

btoy lives in barcelona. one of her interests is to use what might be called a “mur trouvé” with its irregular surfaces, adding remains of pollution and ads, where doors and windows boarded become appropriate frameworks for self-expression in her work. walls sought and found, not so random, they become an ideal medium to disseminate the work. their characters stop and dig into his eyes making us reflect on the passage of time. People of difficult adjustment to a stable society. becoming childhood dreams disappointments. a world of illusion. different times and places, but ultimately the same show, which runs in front and behind the mask. her work is characterized by intertextuality. heavy load nostalgic portraits are swayed by forceful brushstrokes and color. pallets colors challenge to those described in black and white photographs. btoy presented in her works the precepts of postmodernism, eclectic, ephemeral, the result of the loss of social cohesion. she has exhibited at galleries in barcelona, london paris and los angeles; and she has participated in many live shows as “The Cans Festival”, in london.
