... who is Artie?

"fuck your beauty standards"

Artie Fly studied industrial design, where he deepened his passion for painting and drawing. Today, he is a visual artist and graphic designer focusing on logo creation, digital illustrations, and freeform art. His works often feature elements of dark humor and irony. He is fascinated by the details of the human body, behavior, and the hidden, secret corners of human thoughts and imagination, which he depicts in his illustrations, ink drawings, and paintings.

Exhibitions

Participants of the Tour

• Date: January - February 2025
• Where: Cafe JAGA, Brno, Czech Republic
• Description: In this exhibition, I presented a series of limited edition graphic prints created using an unconventional experimental process. I deliberately avoided my traditional linear techniques and embraced randomness. The result is works that stand out with vibrant colors and irregular lines. Some of them were further enhanced by hand, adding elements of gold, aluminum, or copper leaf. These metals emphasize the symbolic layers of each piece. For example, the use of aluminum to depict the hair of older women or men refers to the transformations associated with aging - a symbol of the passage of time. Through this approach, I aimed to invite you to a deeper reflection on the relationship between art, chance, and symbolism, and to encourage you to interpret each piece personally. I believe that each of you has discovered or will discover something personal in these works.
