OUGD601: Ignasi Monreal - Artist

Focusing on fantasy, Montral uses paints to create his high fashion scenes, composed of designer clothes and fantastical locations. The subjects, often serene and appearing peaceful, project the feelings of utopia through the apparent tranquility captured by the colour palette and positioning of the subjects. Montral uses aspects of mythology and popular culture to create his paintings, which is probably what makes them personal and engaging to the audience- everyone will have their own memories/perceptions of the connotations presented.
