I recently found an artist that I am inspired by, especially with the themes I'm currently working on. Yo Insa creates photographs, graffiti murals, illustrations, and even high heel shoes. Although initially his work appears to be low brow pictures of half naked women on bikes and brightly colored patterns spray painted on walls, I believe his work speaks of the excesses seen in society in regards to materialism and sex. The work also comments on a particular kind of street culture. I especially like his set of paper dolls, showing the roles that a woman from this culture may play, focusing on stereotypical roles of a woman.
