In FELAX, Ryol draws on pop culture references to create a pastel portrait with youthful whimsy.

The character Felax is a 'hybrid' of two recurring characters from the artist's work – Snorlax and Felix. The process of combining them – poaching inspiration freely from eclectic, far-flung sources – owes as much to the internet as the references themselves.

As well as a series of glow-in-the-dark and glitter details, each print has been hand-finished by the artist using spray paint.

Medium

Giclee print with silkscreen detail layers including glow-in-the-dark ink and ‘sugarcoat’ glitter, printed on 310gsm Hahnemuhle Photorag paper and individually hand-finished using spray paint.

Ryol2 collaborationsRyo Laksamana (aka Ryol) blends childlike fancy with nods to pop culture and beyond. His paintings and drawings depict young people with enormous, emotive eyes. The artist cites Yoshitomo Nara as a key stylistic influence. Earlier works have a more sombre tone. Their pop-surrealist style is made up of muted, smoothly blended oils. Around 2020, the artist began creating works with a more light-hearted feel. His technique involves applying layer upon layer of acrylic, pastel and crayon. Occasionally he adds splashes of paint or uses stencils. While still portraits, the mark-making is more visible, colourful and playful.
