Sokram

<div>Emergence Festival - Sokram is a street artist and multidisciplinary creator (design, illustration, street art, music, fine arts). His street works play with the environment, reusing the shape of buildings, taking advantage of any object that could help to get the public's attention: structures, abandoned buildings, street furniture, stones, concrete blocks, drums and containers. Whatever, if it fits the concept.</div>

Pablo S.Herrero

<div>Emergence Festival - Pablo S. Herrero is a Spanish artist with a thousand collaborations, with a language that inevitably leads people to take root. His work insinuates itself in every free space on the surface; his language starts from a stylization of the tree, brought back to a continuity between aerial apparatus and roots, in which the stem represents only a transitory element, as if absorbing (sun, light) and sucking (nutrients) are the only activities worthy of note. In the end, life is this.<br>Herrero works with the sign as a vital force, which is such as to sustain the continuous constructive confrontation with the language of other artists, e1000, David de la Mano, just to name a few. And then the branches follow colored geometric shapes, they drown in a red sunset or go to determine the lower ends of hominids of primitive mold.<br>Active mainly in Spain, it works on the commission of private individuals and galleries.</div>

SR.X

<div>Emergence Festival - Our consumerist culture provides the inspiration for much of Sr. X's work. Her work is a sharp and ironic critique of popular culture, the media and the way we interact with each other within this conformist society. In addition to painting large-scale murals for cities, Sr. X also works in the studio producing more conventional works on canvas. X has participated in numerous international art fairs and exhibitions.</div>

Luca Ledda

<div>Emergence Festival - Lucca Ledda is an illustrator from Turin. His works are characterized by a particular graphic sign, which gives strength and personality to the subjects represented. Ironic, surreal and provocative, the characters created by Luca Ledda have a particular visual impact, and make the viewer never remain indifferent to what he sees.<br>Today Luca Ledda's works are found in the walls of the whole world.</div>

Diamond

<div>Emergence Festival - Diamond was born in Rome in 1977. He has shown a natural predisposition to drawing since childhood. He made his debut as a writer on the Roman scene in the early nineties and at the same time, after the artistic high school, he completed his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts of Rome, obtaining the title of "master of art". His experience in the world of graffiti evolves: he arrives at street-art, becoming one of the greatest exponents of the capital. The work of Diamond while consistent with itself does not follow the classic clichés of street-art. The techniques used by him are unusual and varied, often dark themes have symbolic / visionary implications and the result of his aristic production is undoubtedly stylistically eclectic and restless, quantitatively overflowing.</div>

Alicè

<div>All of Alicè's work tends to a production that, through scenarios composed of women and children, tells moments of real life, real emotions from hilarity to melancholy, without ever yielding to the commonplace.<br><br>Its walls have remained in the memory of the citizens of the countries it has traveled through thanks to the strong, independent and creative women who abandon themselves on the different walls where they work each time.</div>

Ortican Noodles

<div>Emergence Festival - Orticanoodles is the pseudonym of two Italian artists, an active and close-knit duo, composed by Wally and Alita.<br>Wally was born in Carrara, where he attended the School of Art in 1996. He then moved to Milan where he met Alita.<br>In 2004, at the beginning of the first illegal actions, their laboratory was located in the Ortica district in Milan, where Orticanoodles took shape. The image of the "mark" Orticanoodles has made its appearance on the streets of the main European cities. Their creations are based on a POP code characterized by the use of the stencil technique, among the first to use this new form of art.<br>Currently the duo is in production, around the metropolis around the world.<br>Until today the duo has painted stencils, different in an autonomous way, but has also participated in important international events and festivals, as well as exhibiting works in museums and private exhibition spaces.</div>

<div>Emergence Festival - True underground icon in the strict sense.<br>It has been on the national and international scene for 13 years. Today he works on large walls around the world, with a technique that re-enacts the punk cartoon depurated by different frills, his stylistic story is never dirty or loaded, it is simple and of great impact. Its refinement comes out thanks to the definition it creates with the use of black and white interrupted by a single other strong color such as fire red, acid green or blue.<br>His style is elegant, impactful, and always tends to narrate content from social notes.</div>

JBrock

<div>Emergence Festival - JB Rock is an Italian contemporary artist born in Rome in 1979. He is among the most famous writers on the Rome street art scene, and has been active since he was 12 years old. The mural work represents a snake, made of hands that eats the tail up to close the figure with a finger pointed in the mouth of the animal. Representation of mythology and iconography, this animal has for millennia played a role full of meaning in the history of the figurativism of many - not to say all - civilizations, as well as in the imagination of every single individual. Work that tends to stimulate the idea of the passage of time, on that time that welcomes us, that hosts us and regulates us: the time outside of us - or better to say - the eternal return of the equal.</div>

VladyArt

<div>VladyArt born in Catania, grew up in Europe. The exterior begins to be used as an artistic, pictorial and compositional study; firstly mainly for decorative interventions, then with more conceptual and less aesthetic methods. VladyArt tries with sarcasm and sagacity to sabotage, undermine, subvert the most common visual certainties, using a universal, simple and effective language. His painting is sometimes distinguished by the pictorial use of the word, in which the dripping and the dense weave are their own aesthetic characteristics. For him, street art is an intellectual reaction to visual stimuli: it can therefore express it in a physical, performative or theatrical way, and more or less everywhere.</div>

Ligama

<div>His pictorial research arrives at the projection of the mechanisms of decomposition and dissolution of the real image into pixels typical of digital virtual, in the desire to reconcile the long and thoughtful times of painting with the frenetic ones of contemporary reality. A research that develops in the studio and in urban art. It is indeed very influenced by urban art, graffiti, and always by painting evolving in space. In his investigation, the pixels are the topics of a new telematic and inconsistent subject, they are a way to see things and to get closer to the story.</div>

Blaqk

<div>Emergence Festival - Blaqk team consists of Greg Papagrigoriou and Chris Tzaferos (Simek).<br>Both are Graphic Designers who live and work in Athens.<br>Blaqk team is a combination of graphic elements, that characterizes the work of both – geometric forms, geometric patterns and calligraphy-typography (often used as an abstract decorative elements in their compositions).

Goddog

<div>Emergence Festival - Goddog, aka Damien Mauro, is street artist, born in 1983 in Chalons en Champagne. He grew up in Orgosolo, Sardinia, famous for its murals that decorate the houses. By evolving in this context, it was as if he was made for the world of street art. Completely self-taught, His abstract work is made up of simple shapes, lines, curves, along with a range of colors and make us go with the flow. Geometric and organic, his work reflects imaginary landscape. One can spot faces in his work, and they emerge in a gentle manner.

Flying Förtress

<div>Emergence Festival - Flying Förtress is a talented German graffiti artist, designer and illustrator, working in several techniques, whose hallmark is the well-known Teddy Trooper figure. He was born in Munich, in 1974.<br>In the process of making something recognizable, the Teddy Troops were created, a concept of iconic status in modern art. After more than 10 years of pursuing this concept, Flying Förtress often finds himself bored and wanting to give up. This is a challenge for the artist, and by overcoming the difficulties, his work grows even bigger and stronger.<br>The artist’s name, even the Teddy Troops, they have their origins in war, but the artwork seems to be just joyful to watch, without any kind of negative context. Flying Förtress got his inspiration where one could think it is all dark.</div>

Erica Ilcane

bastardilla

She paints in anonymity, she comes from Bogota.</div>

<div>Emergence Festival - Born in Rome in 1983. In the second half of the nineties his creative path took shape, he never experienced the letter in the strict sense, he preferred, from the beginning to exploit the space stolen from the city with images of figurative character. Exasperation of the technique, this is the setting that made the artist's hand move to give shape to the games between lights and shadows and to the formal research that he brings with determination. He has exhibited in Italy and abroad, he was one of the three Italian artists invited to exhibit at the Cans festival in London, an event organized by Banksy, the most famous street artist in the world.</div>

NeSpoon

<div>Emergence Festival - Aesthetics, tradition and dexterity are combined in the interventions of the NeSpoon street artist. Originally from Warsaw, the artist is now known all over the world for her urban works inspired by the ancient art of lace. In a mix of stencils, drawings and real textures, NeSpoon intervenes on the urban environment, giving them glimpses of unexpected beauty: a traditional technique, practiced for centuries at all latitudes, enters into dialogue with a hyper-contemporary logic of urban recovery thanks to artistic instruments.<br>NeSpoon's interventions are in fact designed to save some areas of the city from degradation or designed to give a new look to industrial buildings, but refer to the local artisan practice, using the recurrent patterns in the texture of the lace.</div>
