Michiel Folkers Profile picture This work of art by José Carioca is made with stenciling and freehand (with acrylic and spray paint), on a collage of posters. These posters were drawn and collected from the Amsterdam street walls. The artwork is finished with an application of a high-gloss varnish that gives the artwork a glossy finish and keeps the whole piece strong together.

When asked about the background of a piece of art, artists often provide deep and 'interesting' stories about the ideas motivating the work. Simple works of art are thus transformed into something great to be praised. Michiel Folkers, or Gieler, will not bother you with stories about where he get his inspiration from and what drives him to paint. What matters to him is that a painting looks nice, and people want to hang it above their sofas. The technique he is using is mostly a combination of acrylic, spraypaint and silkscreening. Since 2014 he is using posters (he collects from walls out of the streets), hand tearing all the posters creates a unique image on canvas. His style can be described as popart or stencilart. Recurring topics are animals, women and heroes (or anti-heroes). Gieler lives in Amsterdam, the city where he started doing graffiti years ago.
