AISHONANZUKA is please to announce our new group exhibition “Transformation”, showing works by Imon Boy, Julio Anaya Cabanding, Katelyn Ledford, and Vanessa Morata. The exhibition will be on view from 8 December to 30 December, 2022.

Imon Boy has been practicing graffiti writing in the streets, transforming ordinary street view into the canvas of his diary. His works alternated from stylized lettering into graffiti related painting and drawings. His creations are inspired by the everyday experience and elements that accompanied his whole life: graffiti, video games, internet culture, movies, music and more. Imon Boy depicts every small or big challenges we encountered in daily life with a generous pinch of humor.

Julio Anaya Cabanding is a graduate of Fine Arts from the Univeristy of Malaga, 2018. His art reinterprets the works of the great classical masters by painting on discarded and deteriorated cardboard, collected from abandoned places and rehabilitated in his studio in order to give them a new identity in a different context. The contrast of this results in the decontextualization of those rigid structures established within the art world. In successfully painting Great works on discarded cardboard, Julio calls into question what it is that we truly value in art.

Vanessa Morata is a visual artist graduated from the Fine Arts of Malaga. She is alerted of the social issue raised from over population and abusive consumption, and attempted to criticize these problems in a cryptic aspect, hiding her message under the seemingly friendly aesthetic. Morata uses a wide range of popular cultural reference, introducing iconic characters from cartoons to contemporary art which are staged in complex interiors. Her works are visually and ideologically a puzzle waiting for the audiences to solve.
