The Norwegian artist internationally known as Artist Zina , is a
young London-based street artist who has become well known for her
blue-scale portraits of women and children. She has been getting a lot
of attention this past year and has been invited to an increasing number
of street art festivals. Whereas she paints mostly in London and the
UK, she has also been beautifying walls in Jamaica and even Oslo.
She
only started spraying 4 years ago when she moved to London after
finishing her bachelor degree in illustration in the SouthWest of
England. Mostly self taught, she has been picking up a few tips and
tricks from the guys, but has explored the use of cans on her own during
live events and festivals.
Current work documents her interest
for the urban art scene that has sparked a desire to work with spray
paint. These outdoor paintings combine influences, looking at realistic
portraiture and different ethnic cultures. Her studio work comes from an
interest in a rising, Pop-surrealistic Movement, that demonstrates bold
colours, rustic steam punk, symbolism and decorative elements.
Exhibition: 2 April - 30 April
Canvas Bar , 235 Old Street, London, EC1V 9HE.
