JULS GABS

Artsted Catalogue, 2023 Edition.

Juls Gabs is a London based artist with a multidisciplinary

approach that includes Painting, Augmented Reality, Social

Media art, and NFT.

Her practice is working toward Celebrating Diversity &

Telling the story of migration. Creating paintings with

hidden QR codes that when you scan them transport

you to a AR deeper version of the painting's concept. The

paintings propose alternative urban landscapes that

coexist with nature, raising awareness of the impact of

climate change and taking action to support carbon reduction.

By merging The Digital and Physical, the artist

demands the progress we all imagine and already own.

She aims to provide the most accessible experiences for

the audience. She introduces the paintings into everyday

Apps to provide an immersive experience of her

imagery and to stretch the concepts. She portraits you:

Your WhatsApp profile, your Netflix preferences, your

Amazon recommendations, She uses it all. The classic

oil+linen portrait is now substituted by algorithms in accounts.

Every Netflix query, Google search and Pinterest

save is your portrait. And she paints you with all of them.

She imagines the Paintings invading streets, democratising

the space and decolonising the roads with digital.

The aim is to connect society using paintings and collectively

create limitless dialogues.

Artwork: ‘Ninfas' Secrets‘, 2022, digital painting with QR
