]]>“I love to work on a large scale because it’s more breathtaking and I prefer to select this size of the project,” the Spanish artist stated once in an interview with Design Boom. “I love to draw directly on the walls and keep creating and improvising during the process,” he added. “I need to see in person the whole architecture and try to play with that. When I do sculptures I need to sketch and then take it to my team to work it out in 3D. Depending on the project, I have about 4 assistants that help me with everything.”
His works, sometimes described as Pop Surrealism meets Street Art, aims at raising questions about existentialism, the universe, the infinite, the meaning of life, and the contradictions of society’s false freedom. “My work is more related to surrealism and pop-art, which I discovered in school, than to street art or what is known as contemporary art,” notes San Miguel.
Amongst his more existential works are a number of churches, transformed into rainbow-colored installations. Scroll down to see some highlights from his Instagram page.

Moureaux’s use of color is unique, treating colors as three-dimensional elements, much like layers, that create and divide spaces, rather than finishing touches applied on surfaces later on.
Her unique approach was inspired by a week-long trip she made to Tokyo as an architectural student, which according to her gave her “the passion for colors.” “It was the flow of staggering colors pervading the street that built a complex depth and density, creating three-dimensional layers in the city of Tokyo,” she writes. “I felt a lot of emotions seeing all these colors, and in that very moment, I decided to move to this city.”
Now based in Tokyo, Moureaux’s architectural designs are based on the layers and colors of Tokyo that provide a complex depth and density, as well as the Japanese traditional spatial elements like sliding screens. She calls this approach “shikiri,” a word that literally means “to divide space using colors.”

]]>“In the lineage of drag and carnival, I re-claim these materials and let them take up space and ritual significance,” she explained in an interview with Art of Choice. Currently attending the Yale School of Art for an MFA in Painting and Printmaking, her work incorporates drawing, installation, and performance.
“For the past year I’ve centered light, mirror, and video as my primary materials,” she said. “My main exploration has been around how I can have flamboyant material objects produce the ephemeral lighting conditions under which that object is seen. Sequin refracts video content into illegible constellations, mirrors bend white light into rainbows.”
“Material experimentation is a big part of how I begin, and most of it doesn’t amount to anything I would want to show people,” she says. “But I’ve learned that I have to do it. A lot of listening to music and trying to make rainbows in the dark.”

]]>Australian artist Tanya Schultz, known as Pip & Pop, makes eye-popping installations from an eclectic range of materials including sugar, glitter, candy, plastic flowers, and other knick-knacks she finds on her travels.
Pip & Pop actually began as a collaboration with fellow artist Nicole Andrijevic in 2007. But after four years, Andrijevic left the partnership to pursue a different career. Schultz now works with other friends and artists creating projects in many parts of the world.
Her work includes installation, painting, and sculptures, that are altogether bright and joyous. She has exhibited her work in Australia, Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Hong Kong, and Germany, among other places.
We wouldn’t mind stepping into one of her creations, but we fear we might get lost in all its shimmery goodness.
