WELCOME TO THE ARTWORKS GALLERY
RETROVERSE: SOLO EXHIBITION
JOSH GARCIA
20 NOVEMBER - 20 JANUARY
Retroverse is Josh Garcia’s first solo online exhibition. The exhibition features 63 pieces of digital and traditional art created since the start of Covid-19 pandemic.
All of the work in the exhibition have a ‘Retro’ style taking inspiration from 1930’s cartoon, the 1980’s and 1990’s animation. Many of the works shown in this exhibition are representing current events in society while others give a nod to nostalgia. Josh is a skilled illustrator balancing important themes with light-hearted comedy.
The characters Josh creates in his artwork take references from his own life such as ‘Elijah the Autism fairy’ as well as adopting more fictional characters like ‘Skulluks’. Josh explores a variety of concepts in his work and is influenced by mixing styles of different cartoon eras. As you virtually navigate the exhibition you are transported through different themes and styles all telling fascinating stories.
