Tymon de Laat43. Tymon de LaatTymon de Laat finds the fuel for his art in the streets of his hometown, Rotterdam, to which he feels indebted, as well as Latin American culture. This influence is the result of a one-year trip to Latin America that Tymon de Laat undertook shortly after graduating from the Willem de Kooning Academy. With little money but rich in ideas, the artist had many encounters, which were enough to durably impact his restless mind, and totally shift his vision of the world and his relationship to visual art. Today, each of his creations (mostly canvas paintings and murals) bears the mark of this culturally mixed approach, since this Dutch artist paints portraits of people he has photographed during his trips. He thus turns these anonymous people into heroes of everyday life, or at least into the symbol of wealth of multiculturalism, represented in a deliberately magnified way through swirling patterns and bright colours. What captures the viewer’s attention is less the individual person than the beauty of their culture painted in places least expected, less the soft benevolence in their eyes than Tymon de Laat’s quickly identifiable style. You can find, for example, the portrait of a young Laotian girl in the streets of Carlisle in North England: or a Cuban tobacco farmer painted in the Straat Museum in Amsterdam. The artists sensitivity, sense of storytelling and detail bring his work beyond representation towards emotion. Words by Maxime Delcourt for GraffitiArt Magazine
Conse46. ConseConse Andechaga is a multidisciplinary, self-taught plastic artist based in Barcelona. From a very young age, Conse has been part of Hip Hop culture. At the beginning of his career in 2007, he began using different firms in the world of graffiti, while also developing as a music producer, Master of Ceremonies (MC) and DJ. During 2008 and 2009 he established CONSE, the firm with which he has developed his entire professional career in the art of graffiti. This marked the introduction of a self-discipline that until then did not exist and continues to investigate further the operation and history of this art. During 2009-2010 he lived in a village outside Barcelona, where he began activities with other artists in the surrounding area, such as interventions in abandoned spaces such as factories, party walls and train tracks. Next came collaboration with institutions in public spaces where activities related to the culture of graffiti were carried out, along with helping the initiation of other artists. In this period he created his own technique in letters as well as adding elements of realism which he would develop in the future. At the end of 2010 he returned to Barcelona where he continued his artistic activity. Between 2012 and 2013 he partially ceased his activity on the street and focused on the development of the technique of realism in charcoal, oil, acrylic, spray, among other techniques of the plastic arts that he would later take back to the streets of Barcelona and other cities, both national and international. 2014 is a year that marks a radical change in his career as he returned to make pieces on the city walls. Applying the technique of realism evolved with its own style that continues to improve day by day. Since then Conse has been travelling throughout countries like United States, Australia, Netherlands, Italy, France, United Kingdom, Germany, among others, participating in various events and exhibitions related to urban art, with a future projection in the realisation of big walls while making his own works for collections and private exhibitions.
