Title: "Urban Caesar" (2016) Technique: Oil on canvas Artwork Description: This artwork is created by the artist Veronica Cantero Yáñez (Barcelona , 1979 ) signed under the pseudonym "Savage Orchideae" , a nickname used for her paintings inspired by urban portraits and street art. About Savage Orchideae ( Verónica Cantero Yáñez ): My artworks are an expression of a conglomerate of influences ranging from Italian Arte Povera to artists like Hieronymus Bosch and Louise Bourgeois. The works of Samuel Beckett and Theatre of the Absurd have also contributed significantly to my development as an artist. Lem's masterpiece, Solaris, has also influenced me, opening a new source of inspiration for my current work. Exhibitions: Group Exhibitions: 2017 "Mirror of Souls." Ángel Cantero Gallery.
