Emma Whiffen-
Her images favour strong, simple, high impact messages and a utilitarian aesthetic borrowed from graphic conventions. Ideas of the everyday, urban icons and pop culture, as well as her own personal symbolism, are explored in her creations. Poignant, enchanting and sometimes ominous, Vexta’s work attempts to comment on the social and political climates of our world.
Her practice is mediated by wit and whimsy – qualities that imbue her images with relevance and enable the audience to engage with her content. For those that view street art as a barometer of a city’s cultural and social awareness, Vexta’s unsanctioned handiwork truly expresses the rumblings of its people by creating a public discourse that captures the imagination of locals and tourists alike.
