ELECTRICIDAD VILLALBA

As part of the Ciutat Vella Oberta, last weekend I completed the design and creation of a one off painting/illustration for the electrical shop ELECTRICIDAD VILLALBA. Pl. San Jaime, 5 (Fundada en 1953). Celebrating one of the traditional shops of the barrio, which I love and hope continue to thrive. These smaller shops are an integral part of neighbourhood life, but are fast dying out, the artwork is my homage and record of one of these shops. The artwork reflects the unique interior of the shop, including vintage elements, everyday items, display and of course the light bulbs. Bringing a little art to the street.
Thanks and kisses to Juanvi, Marie and Lee for all their help and advice.

Ciutat Vella Oberta – Open Studios

Ciutat Vella en detalle

This weekend, the 8th, 9th and 10th of November, I am participating in the Ciutat Vella Oberta arts festival in Valencia.

My little studio in the heart of el barrio Carmen is open to the public. Screenprints, digital prints and lots of other goodies by me, as well as collage, prints and posters by other artists.

During the festival, you can also see a collection of my photos from my ‘Valencia en Detalle’ project. 42 photos from the Cuitat Vella neighborhood. Textures, tiles and typography. The detail and patina of the city captured when exploring its sunny streets – Finding beauty from the everyday and the traces people leave behind…

This is not a shop – Calle Baja, 27 bajo
Friday 8th, 17-21h
Saturday 9th, 11-14h
Sunday 10th,11-14h

Valencia en Detalle

A collection of seven images from the streets of Valencia – Textures, tiles and typography. The detail and patina of the city captured when exploring its sunny streets – Finding beauty from the everyday and the traces people leave behind… An alternative souvenir to the typical postcards. Buy as a set, a memento of Valencia, or as individual postcards to send.
