Rosa Del Alba

Rosa studied at the UABJO School of Plastic and Visual Arts in Oaxaca, Mexico and specialized in painting. She has participated in various group exhibitions in the state of Oaxaca. Her traditional artwork is mainly influenced by comics, cyberpunk and Japanese pop art. She is co-owner of the Diablo Azul Tattoo studio and gallery which she operates with her partner Erick De Silva. TOgether they combine elemetns of different artistic styles such as Asian anime and Mexican Folklore to create original tattoo designs.

“My pieces always try to tell a story, sometimes from beginning to end, but in many others, just the highlights. I like that whoever observes it draws their own conclusions or gives meaning to what they are seeing even if they do not completely understand my message, The aesthetics of my pieces are highly influenced by cyberpunk, postmodernism and futuristic dystopias. Similarly, the worlds or realities that my characters inhabit are always accompanied by religious symbolism and pop culture, a very repetitive element in almost all my pieces. They are symbolic anchors because for me they represent the connection with the human and the divine, with the human and the virtual, with the paranormal and the earthly and finally with the reality of the time we inhabit and the reality that we will inhabit in the future.”
