It has comfort, it is a sincere art then it is rightful to be a “rich art”.
A Young Puerto Rican Artist busted Twitter with his “Art piece” in a blanket. The unfolded picture gives u a taste of transcending look of old-money feels, you would love to languish in. Well, if my blanket assures me it will do the work as it wants you to fantasize then I’ll believe it's bringing magic, since it is a product from an Inventive Artist itself.
Marcos Alvarado, the 22-year-old Artist Shows his work on Twitter on how he made to market his blanket. The art is genuinely fresh and different in today's selling blueprint. The blankets made it oddly familiar, for it reminds you of an era of households that appreciates the richness of details in its decors.
Tiled from the name of his shop, MBM meaning Miracle, beliefs, and Mysteries. It eyes the journey of living by the guides of the universe; far from the grasp of the physical world. Titles of his work are “Pursuit of love”, “as above, so below”, etc. Names that sore as the story of the pieces, creating romanticism in life, love, and everything in between.
The theme of his designs shows a perfect human anatomy, it is very detailed. He achieved to use the comfort of bed essentials to inform the messages and the concept. (The Blanket is 100% made from cotton with tasseled edges 5ft x 6ft Tall.)
The coolest part of his work is it is based on traditional fine art – from only Paper and a pencil colors, he sketched his designs and colors them sharply, and when the design is done he had a Projector with him that can zoom the snap photo of the finished sketches and reflect it into the size of the Blankets, after that he will sketch the design into the blankets and use a Rug tufting gun to trace the design and build it up from there with his other Supplies. A breath of art from the fast-paced Digital art, the workmanship of the smoothness, and cinematic grain noise created by paper and pencil. It is slow processual art, and that is momentary, to make up the texture and grit nor flow of hands in making such soulful art that leaps a huge difference in the strategy of commercial art businesses these days.
You’ll be able to buy the Printed design versions of his work for about 1,600 PHP. The avenue of his works is not limited to Blankets, he had it in Tote bags in a heart-shaped, Pants, Denim, Backpack, masks, stickers, Phone cases, Tees, and Shirt with Sleeves. Installation art it is.
Recently His work catches the eyes of Jhene Aiko and Billie Eilish.
"Trust divine timing. Just because you don’t have things figured out doesn’t mean you’re running behind. What’s unfolding for you is very sacred & you’re being prepared for it all. Your timing is your timing." Marcos Tweeted.
The artist proved that you don’t need to adjust your worth into the norm.
Since a lot of commercial wants fast art that they hampered the power of Traditional and slow forming and sculpting of traditional mediums such pencil into papers. He wanted to open the eyes of aspiring traditional artists that the equivalent process of traditional art also has its say to fulfill its audience, we just need to find our own recipe for marketing it.
