More info artist:
Michiel Folkers, also known as Gieler (1982), started with graffiti in Amsterdam in the late 1990s. Years later, he swapped the street walls for canvas in his studio. Much of his work still vividly reflects the feeling of the streets. He is especially known for his layered paintings, large works in which he combines colorful street posters with spray paint and acrylic paint. He collects these street posters himself for each individual artwork and uses them as the basis for all his pieces.
Currently, his work is going all over the world, and he exhibits in galleries from Zurich to New York. His work is especially popular in America, and he has several 'famous people' in his homes.

He is pulling and collecting these streetposters himself for every individual artwork and is using this as base for all his pieces. On top of these layered backgrounds he paints, screenprint or paste recognizable themes for example comics or celebs (from now or the past) but also large abstract paintings. Always important the background doesn't get lost but entangles with the subject. Every piece is unique and looks like a brick of wall that you want to hang in your home. Every piece is finished with a strong and shiny lacquer layer.
