About the Artist: Javier Calleja (b. 1971) is a contemporary Spanish artist living and working in Malaga, Spain. Calleja is most known for his figurative style of cartoonish, doe-eyed characters with exaggerated features. His style is influenced by the toys and comics from his 70s and 80s upbringing. Calleja’s characters are often accompanied by text that contrasts the innocent and adolescent looking facial expressions of the characters represented in the compositions. Calleja works in painting, sculpture, and works on paper.
