Miss Van

Miss Van started wall-painting at the age of 20, in 1993, initiating the feminine
movement in Street Art. Originating from Toulouse, France and having spent most of
her artistic life in Barcelona, Spain. Miss Van has travelled the world painting her
instantly recognizable women on the streets, as well as on canvas. She has exhibited
extensively for decades worldwide in Europe, USA and Asia.
Miss Van’s recent artistic pursuits have taken her to Los Angeles, Miami, Spain and
Brazil, which hallmarks a recent return to street art, after several years spent solely
painting in the studio, charging her new works with increased depth, emotion and an
elevated romantic darkness and delicacy. Her iconic sultry female characters reappear
in sensual yet dark animal masks and evolving environments. In a gauzy romantic
compositions, they carry a surreal quality of burlesque, resonating with a beautiful
synergy of rawness, softness and emotion.
