RETNA is one of my new favorite artist to follow, his work is a collaboration all itself! Influenced by languages and calligraphy his work speaks volumes to me. Like any great artist RETNA is really less about the money and more about the moment of how he feels. His creations, although may appear simplistic, hold a lot of emotions and feelings. I was first introduced to his from the Micheal Kohn Gallery exhibit he did, all all the pieces were glitter! (online images do not give it justice!) After that I start spotting his work all over the city! Clearly I wasnt the only one impressed, Louis Vuitton commissioned him to paint the outside of their Miami store! If that wasnt enough, he also did a scarf collaboration with Louis Vuitton which can only be purchased at the Miami location, I scored one and just had to shoot it!! :)
