Monsieur José

Sailors are one of Juan's favourite characters. Monsieur José is wearing a marinière, the traditional Breton shirt, just like Juan Boilero himself. His face is inspired by Juan's fellow student and great friend José. 

This artwork was sustainably produced. At least 80% of the paper was obtained by the artist from used cardboard shipping boxes.

Juan Boilero

Juan Boilero was born in Cuba but has lived in Germany since 1991. He works as a graphic designer and advertising photographer near Berlin. The formal discipline he practices on a daily basis as a graphic designer, explains the reductionism in the aesthetics of his homoerotic art.

As an artist, he has three values: genuine eroticism beyond the established visual culture, simplicity and humour. Juan Boilero sees himself first and foremost as a cartoonist who draws with scissors.

"If someone finds my work amusing, I feel understood," says the artist.
