Wizard’s Sleeve (2015)

Thinkspace Gallery is a contemporary art gallery located in Los Angeles, California, known for its focus on urban, pop surrealism, and street art. Founded in 2005, the gallery has gained a reputation for showcasing cutting-edge, emerging artists who blend traditional and modern artistic styles. Thinkspace is celebrated for promoting contemporary artists whose works explore themes of fantasy, the surreal, and the experimental, making it a pivotal space in the art toy and street art communities. Veca’s work is characterized by elaborate, hand-drawn linework and psychedelic patterns that transform familiar imagery into immersive, often surreal environments. His installations frequently envelop entire spaces, creating a sense of awe and disorientation. Drawing inspiration from sources as varied as 18th-century French toile patterns, comic books, and baroque design, Veca’s art explores the interplay between high and low culture. Acrylic paint is fast drying paint containing pigment suspension in acrylic polymer emulsion. Acrylic paints can be diluted with water, but become water-resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted (with water) or modified with acrylic gels, media, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolor or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with other media.
