EME
Having simplicity as a motto, the artist from Murcia that choose to call herself just "M", shows a great appreciation for typography, drawing and letters. For her, Graffiti is both disease and cure, which makes her paint naive figures, certainly inspired by cartoons and animated films that she enjoy. Eme recreates a reality that is "pessimistic, simple, profound, graphic, shy, fragile.", with anels of letters in different formats, punctuated by small figures, with simple phrases and feelings of ordinary people. What about graffiti? "It’s her right hand. The left hand is the people she likes."
