Reskate Arts y Crafts is a design studio based in the Spanish city of Barcelona, which has an extensive and varied portfolio comprising graphic design, advertising, illustration ... But also its two founding members Maria Lopez and Javier de Riba , have been enriching with a side whose facet they cultivate from different artistic manifestations.
Encompassing a wide range of proposals through which they explore and develop new and surprising visual techniques whose results apply especially in the urban environment, and through which they express their concerns about everyday issues with which we can feel identified.
One of these creative and dynamic techniques is to perform interventions in the public space creating elaborate and insightful murals applying a photoluminescent paint, which due to its chemical composition allows to camouflage graphic motifs.
Those who reveal their forms and message in poor lighting conditions, managing to establish surprising optical effects and different interpretations of the same work in different time zones. With those who manage to create a dual narrative that depending on the time in which it is contemplated will offer a different interpretation.
The photoluminescent murals made by the artistic duo Reskate Arts and Crafts, describe us dual messages in a subtle way depending on the time slot and the availability of light at the moment in which they are contemplated.
