About: Pejac

An Entity of Type: animal, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Pejac is a Spanish painter whose works include outdoor murals, often utilising trompe-l'œil techniques. Pejac is familiar with different styles, techniques, formats and mediums: "From miniature window drawings, striking site-specific interventions to elaborate replicas of classic masterpieces, [...]. Taking clever twists on familiar images and skill-fully reinventing the public space, Spain-based artist is touching sensitive social and environmental issues in a smart and poetic manner." Even though Pejac is skilled and capable of making remakes of classic masterpieces by Claude Monet, Eugène Delacroix, Katsushika Hokusai, or references to Lucio Fontana or Alberto Giacometti, he feels comfortable minimising his work to bare silhouettes or shadows when needed.
