Miss Van

by Sharon R.







Miss Van belongs a street art group in France. The other four members are Fafi, Lus, Plume and Kat. Their group is called Hanky Panky Girl. Their main themes are all sexy girls. Fafi's and Miss Van's drawings resembled each other in some degrees. the girl is chubby and has very seductive red cherry lip. The eyes seem always lazy and the atmosphere is always tense, rebelling, and dark. It is the products of emotions and express the suppressed side of us in daily life. It can be anything that she wanted to be.

the color choice here is intentionally set to the scheme for emo, with a little gothic flavor. The author is trying to express herself or let the audience relate themselves with the chubby girl. On one hand, the artist depicted a rebelling teenage young girls. On the other hand, she is trying to depict irony of life though the pictures. The girl always has a sarcastic, dark smile near her lips as if she sees the hypocrisy and ridicule of many things. It can represent the feelings of the artist herself toward life.
