Dora
Based in Bristol, Dora is one of the few successful female faces amongst the ever-evolving urban art scene.
She brings a fresh feminine style with her distinctive ladies (portraits of her friends) and stylish patterns, encompasses Print, graffiti, illustrative ink, painting and drawing taking on the boy heavy walls and galleries and bringing a refreshing look to contemporary art.
Dora's work is current, though reflecting influences from art nouveau, Japanese prints, burlesque and 50's tattoo design its wrapped up and packaged with an up to date edge and firmly stands by itself.
Dora's work has been featured in Selfridges, 'Mu-Tate Britain' (London), 'Crimes of Passion', (Bristol) ,'Line Steppers' (Birmingham) and the streets of Berlin to name but a few.
Her collaborations include; Rowdy, Paris, Milk, K148, Amour and Hine
Dora is part of the female collective 'Great Birds of the British Isles' formed earlier this year in 2009. Alongside Milk and K148, the 3 are creating something totally unique, exploring an intoxicating mix of juiced up logos, print, great birds, female forms and a spoon full of graffiti... seen through a very different eye. After their successful London and Bristol debut Show's expect many more exciting things to come.
