This original layered mixed media artwork by Michiel Folkers, also known as Gieler (1982), features Candice Swanepoel.

The piece is in original condition, directly from the studio. It is constructed on canvas and shipped without a stretcher frame, so it needs to be professionally stretched after delivery. The piece comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. The artwork will be professionally packed and shipped securely in a tube within 48 hours. Michiel Folkers started with graffiti in Amsterdam in the late 1990s. Years later, he traded the street walls for canvas in his studio, while maintaining a strong connection to his roots in street art. He is best known for his layered paintings – large-scale works, where he combines colourful street posters with spray paint and acrylic paint. He collects these posters for each artwork and uses them as the base for all his pieces. His work travels across the world, and he exhibits in galleries from Zurich to New York. His art is particularly popular in America and hangs in the homes of several celebrities.
