Anthea Missy – biographical facts Anthea Missy started off painting around June 2014. With French nationality, she lives in Brussels and travels round the world to paint commissioned and unsolicited murals . Her style originates in automatic writing and abstract curved lines. From there, she’s developed figurative characters inspired by her long stay in South East Asia back in 2015, a place where people understand the cuteness better than minimalist abstract art. Whether minimalist and quite nude, or flirting with pop asian figurative art, her style can be noticed and recognised distinctively. The vibe of her work is fresh and young and feels joy and enthusiasm for life, or for the most abstract works quite aerial and deep despite their minimalism. The artistic skills cover a wide range of techniques and medium: graffiti, muralism, street art, paste-ups, free hand, and stencils, from a very small scale up to monumentalism. Canvas and art on paper, ceramics and clothing. The subjects covered in her art go from the simple appetite to be happy and expression of joy for life to engaged art activities. In 2015, she stayed in Cambodia for 9 months and created art in the Boeung Kak Art Lake where she met French activists who were leading a passive resistance to locals evictions due to economic and politic lobbies that had lead to the lake’ drowning earlier in 2000’s. In 2016, she participated in Au Bord de l’Eau project in Brussels Laeken, and created a mural for the new social place, supported by Mattelart Art Fund, a crowdfunding and Port of Brussels. ‘ I like doing my art and people’. The main characteristics of Anthea Missy’s work: - STORY TELLING with campaign-like projects having social and collective roots. - VERSATILITY of media used, places and contexts, subjects and themes, collaborators. - HAPPENING & ENTERTAINMENT, not afraid to go from commissions to unsolicited acts as a natural art performer who goes bare face at day and night and documents her work with video and personal notes. - FIGURATIVE ABSTRACTION with a signature organic style and a sense of positive/negative space and movement. - AUTHENTICITY by keeping the lead on her productions and fuelling the artwork with her complete identity. https://www.antheamissy.com/
