ARTWORKS:
Traditional Artworks:
Old to New Murakami
This painting is a superflat style piece depicting a graffiti wall with figures featuring flower heads. I used bright, flat colors to connect the elements of Japanese pop culture, anime, and manga, translating these influences into a contemporary painting. It is heavily inspired by the Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, many of the characters in the piece are based on his signature creations. The use of superflat technique allows for a bold, graphic quality that blends the playful with the profound, reflecting the dynamic nature of both street art and Japanese visual culture.
Bonds
This painting features the silhouettes of my friends, with each figure filled in with a color that represents their favorite colors. These colors are meant to symbolize different aspects of their personalities and traits, offering a glimpse into who they are. To me, friends and family represent a close-knit community, a bond where we can support each other through both the good and difficult times. This connection fosters a sense of belonging, strengthening the ties that unite us as a group and creating a bond of support that improves our lives.
Digital Artworks:
Shots Chloes
This digital art is a reflection of my identity, drawing inspiration from Andy Warhol’s Shot Marilyns series, which features silkscreen portraits of Marilyn Monroe. It is inspired to Andy Warhol’s work, where this piece centers around a series of portraits but they are all my faces. The bold, vibrant colors used throughout the piece reflect my personal preferences, as I am drawn to bright colors that symbolize positivity. To me, these colors evoke feelings of energy, joy, and warmth, creating a dynamic and bright atmosphere that reflects my own approach to life.
NEON EVERGLOW
In this mixed media collage, the girl's body and face shine with neon shades of blue, pink, and purple, standing out brightly against the black background. Her sitting cool pose shows both strength and calm, with the bright colors making her look powerful. The neon light surrounds her, highlighting the shape of her body and giving a sense of movement. Her confident expression is made softer by the glow, adding more feeling to her look. This digital portrait captures the lively energy of neon while keeping a calm and balanced feeling.
