Arteunok — Spain

 

The arcane graffiti arts, involving late night freehand spray can forays on to vacant urban walls, is a thing of the past these days, due to it gaining acceptance and the creative evolution of many of its artists in this independent art culture.. The spirit of spontaneity still survives but the presentation has more finesse and scale and the mixing of techniques such as collage, graffiti, stencil, painting and drawing have been introduced. The merging of photo realism, abstraction and street art savvy have resulted in striking visuals rich in emotion and reach.

As the street art juggernaut rolls on, conferring it to be one of the fastest growing art movements at the beginning of the 21st century, both male and female street artists have been expanding the street aesthetic and pushing the pigments to drive new expressions of femininity with their urban murals to attain higher levels of recognition and visibility for women.

The involvement of female artists is growing and more have entered the street art fray. Several are featured here including the Cape Town street artist Faith 47, who has a focus on themes of equality, poverty and justice using a central figure of a women, quite often portrayed as an angel, lady liberty or an African mother with a child on her back, to communicate the message of a woman’s place in the world. Other female artists include the prolific French urban artist Vinnie, Amanda Lynne, Alice Pasquini, Diana Contreras, Toofly and Lady Aiko, who has been developing her Pop influenced street art using collages of mixed media landscapes since she moved to New York from Tokyo in the 90’s. She juxtaposes raw feminine imagery with touches of vivid butterflies and large flowers.

The male street visual artists also exploring female imagery include the UK artist’s Russ Mills of Byroglyphics, Mr Cenz with his colored futuristic female creations, David Walker’s color-explosive portrait abstractions and the Irish urban aesthetic painter FinDac. There’s also Hush with his mystique filled graffiti geishas, French artists Alexandre Monteiro aka Hopare and Loui Jouvier, the US based Ecuadorian artist Lenny Correa, Australian’s Anthony Lister and Reka One and Spanish based artist duo Pichi & Avo, recognized for their deft ability to ignite relationships between art, sculpture, architecture, space and social context.

“I love the idea of creating art for “the people” and sharing my vision with them. It’s so much fun! And it is also a great way for me to showcase my art. I want folks who see my art to feel positive about themselves. If there is a central message, it is: Enjoy your life! And I also want girls to know that they have the power to follow their dreams and create themselves.”    ... streetartNY
