Contemporary artist Christopher Lizarraga's work has a powerful and immediately recognizable style. Incorporating elements of Latin American Cubism, combined with influence from the street art of Los Angeles, Lizarraga's paintings infuse enigmatic shapes with bold colors formed through detailed line work and a dynamic application of mixed media.
Lizarraga continues to garner international attention as one of the most exciting artists of the street art scene, not least because of his creative relationships with some of the most prominent street artists in L.A. Lizarraga is currently represented by the House of Fine Art in London and has exhibited in locations around the world, including standout features at the Tracy Park Gallery and the “Matter and Form” exhibition in London. The LUNATICS Genesis collection is inspired by Lizarraga's fine art paintings, which evoke the inner LUNATIC in us all.
Leonardo Fonseca, aka Nuxer, is a self-taught 3D artist and creative junkie, who has spent the last eight years of his career exploring and sharpening his craft to push the boundaries of the CGI environment. Nuxer's art is deeply inspired by futuristic and minimalist approaches that combine powerful shifts between the absence of color and vibrant hues that create a unique visual impact.
Nuxer approaches every piece with a special attention to detail, so the viewer is allowed to discover the intricate nature of computer-generated imagery. Combining his unique digital aesthetic with Christopher Lizarraga's contemporary fine artworks, Nuxer helped bring the LUNATICS Genesis collection to life in 3D.
