ZU WEIT GEGANGEN, UM UMZUDREHEN Artwork

• Instagram: leo_rebella • Website: www.leo-rebella.com • Based in Hannover, Germany • Born 1992 • Studied art history (Bachelor & Master) • Self taught artist since 2021 I studied art history and worked in contemporary art galleries ashore and on board of several cruise ships all over the world before I decided to go for it by myself and be creative on my own. Inspired by street and graffiti art I collect ripped posters and billboard paper from different city hotspots like Amsterdam, Rome, Hamburg and Berlin to bring you the urban feeling and statement pieces right onto your walls. Added with acrylic and spray paint on canvases I create bright and sometimes neon colored art works with raw structures and messages from the past (event dates, ad banners,…). Giving these pieces a „face“ I apply celebrities and heroes from 20th and 21th century, people with their own story of SUCCESS. They are integrated into these mixed media surfaces, becoming alive between dripping paint, acrylic vibrant colors and tell their very own story of life you are invited to get inspired from.
