Details:
Maarten’s “chicas” are a variation on pure Chicano: they are girls surrounded by roses, characterized by crosses and even at times iconised as Madonnas. But the lettering is different, the outlines bolder and perhaps the women themselves are more realistic. Because Maarten’s is a European take on this style and it is in this contamination of genres – Chicano, Traditional and Realism – that lies the real strength and originality of the project.
