Solo202. SoloRome, italy 1982. Devourer of comics and pop culture, he discovered the world of graffiti at the high school. After, at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, under the guidance of Michele Cossyro, he transformed his way of expressing himself through painting on canvas, experimenting with classic techniques and moving his language from the typical writing lettering to the figurative. In 2008 he graduated with full marks, interviewing Ronnie Cutrone in New York. Subsequently Solo, combines the world of graffiti, made of spray cans, with the pop figures that he fixed on canvas during his studies, making superheroes in crisis appear on the walls of Rome, which will remain the hallmark of his artistic research. Raised with the values of the heroes encountered in comics, he amplifies those teachings by transferring them to the walls of cities and thus making them available to everyone. Over the last 15 years he has painted on walls and exhibited his works in numerous important galleries, from Paris to Prague, up to Satka in Russia, where in 2017, he was chosen together with Diamond, with whom he shares the studio, to represent Italy at the international street art biennial, and in Miami, where in 2013 he exhibited at Art Basel. At the same time as his artistic production with walls, canvases, sculptures and silk-screen prints, he brings his experience by teaching in schools, prisons and healthcare facilities. Over the years he has collaborated with underground realities such as Respect Project, with which he creates clothing, and with the largest international brands, including Valentino with a capsule in 2016, Marvel-Disney, Warner Bros and Panini, thanks to the global diffusion of cinecomics, and Louis Vuitton, which commissioned a series of hand-painted trunks between 2019 and 2020
JOTALO203. JOTALOJose Javier López, aka Jota López, is a multidisciplinary artist from Murcia born in 1995. His passion for the plastic arts comes from a very early age, which led him to enter the world of Graffiti about 2008 and which years later led to a need to create more complex art on a larger scale, thus beginning in painting murals. Furthermore, Jota trained as an Industrial Designer, dedicating himself professionally to Graphic Design and later to the world of art direction and 3D animation, all of this in parallel with muralism. The influence of these artistic fields is reflected in the style and technique of the works he currently creates, creating compositions full of color and playing with the fusion of shapes, the technique of realism and some optical effects that provide a visual character typical of the modern digital world, all this done using the spray technique. The style, if a name had to be appropriate, could be called abstract portrait along with a retro-digital aesthetic. His best project to date is the art direction and design the SFDK new music album, in addition to a huge mural (8 x 12m) of the album cover in Seville. SFDK is one of the best spanish rap bands and one of the pioneers of hip hop culture in Spain and Latin America. Another notable project is his mural “ELLA” (10x15m) at Astarté Festival de Arte Urbano in Cuenca, Spain. On the other hand hi has participate at a lot of national events and festivals as well as Liga Nacional de Graffiti, getting some awards at different events around the country.
D!VE214. D!VED!VE is an Irish visual artist. Originally from Cork, he studied Graphic Design at the Limerick School of Art & Design. In pursuit of further artistic development, he traveled to Berlin where he used his skills in visual communications combined with a passion for screen print to develop his practice as a printmaker and a creator. D!VE began his artistic journey as teenager heavily influenced by street art culture, he was drawn in by the lawlessness but he stayed for the creative outlet...and the smell of the paint. D!VE's artistic practice focuses on creating snapshots of moments that never happened. Visualising objects disassembling in zero gravity to create highly detailed images outside the limitations of traditional composition, revealing components and structures that would be otherwise hidden depending on the angle. This concept is fueled by Picasso’s words, ‘Every act of creation begins as an act of destruction’. Destruction, deconstructed. D!VE’s focus on shattering historical statues is derived from the notion that these figures represent societies at their cultural peak. Great Roman & Greek philosophers, warriors and Gods frozen in time emphasise the power of humanity. The fractured statues represent today’s fractured society. A divided world of people contrasting from far right to far left, where peoples unwavering belief in the most outlandish conspiracy theories would make the most rational thinker question their sanity, where having all of the worlds information at our fingertips made us vacuous.
