About Meredes Bellido:
Born in 1991 in Zaragoza, Spain, Mercedes Bellido is a painter and illustrator currently based in Madrid - and at the forefront of contemporary Spanish art.
Inspired by surrealist masters such as Giorgio de Chirico and René Magritte, Bellido's paintings effortlessly create an aura of mystery and symbolic power, where nothing is what it seems and every little detail has a story to tell.
The artist's enigmatic work often blurs the lines between good and evil, between beauty and decay, inviting the viewer to reconsider the assumptions they make about life, death, and everything that hangs in the balance.
And her metaphysical style - which she dubs "Baroque surrealism" - evokes both the mystical and macabre through recurring motifs of skulls, stars, tarot cards, and tattered polaroids. Yet she often pairs such sinister symbols with the flora and fauna of our natural world, including fruits, flowers and wild animals such as panthers, snakes, and birds of prey.
Given her prowess as one of the most sought-after Spanish visual artists active today, we are honored to feature Bellido's world of occult symbols and vivid color palettes in our 2021 YOW Artist Series with the Mercedes Bellido 34" board.

About the Board:
For this design, Mercedes Bellido has turned to Japanese folklore to create an elegant and harmonious layout. Its imagery is serene and idyllic, but full of occult symbolism that references both the eternal and ephemeral.
BAKENEKOS: Two bakenekos (化け猫, "changed cat") feature prominently in the center, and they are a form of Japanese yōkai, known as spirits or apparitions. In this case, the bakenekos are mischievous feline phantoms that grow more tails when they live for more than 100 years.
CHERRY BLOSSOM: Also known as sakura (桜 or 櫻), the cherry tree is an iconic part of popular Japanese culture. The short-lived bloom of the cherry blossom each spring is deeply symbolic, as it is associated with the fleeting nature of time, beauty, and life itself.
OUROBOROS: Originating in Ancient Greek magic (οὐρά 'tail' plus -βορός '-eating'), the ouroboros is the striking symbol of a serpent eating its own tail, an endless circle that represents the cycle of life and death repeating forever.
MOUNT FUJI: As a cultural icon of Japan and a UNESCO World Heritage site, Mount Fuji is profoundly meaningful to many people. And as a mountain, it's an ancient symbol of eternity as mountains typically take millions of years to form.
LUNAR PHASES: A classic nod to the cyclical nature of time and the revolution of the moon around the earth.
