Playoutyork

Artist born in Brindisi in southern Italy in 1987, he moved from house to house until he reached the age of 11 in Liguria, La Spezia. He began experimenting with letters combined with faces in 2000, schools weren’t his thing and he often ran away to paint in the street.

Works on: cartoons / characters / children / graffiti / humour / illustrations / portraits / walls /

Jennifer Erny

I sign my work j3rny, playing with the phonetic coincidence of the word “journey” with the initial letter of my first name along with my last. It is fitting as in my work I capture moments of spiritual encounters or journeys. For me the most direct path to a spiritual encounter is through nature. So I depict portraits of the human figure interacting with the natural world, with plants, insects and animals. In recognizing the present moment and breathing in the magnitude and marvel of the simple elements of one’s everyday environment, we encounter ourselves and therefore the pulsating essence that inhabits and connects us.

Works on: animals / colours / commisioned / female artist / girl power / illustrations / nature / walls /
