YOLA
A street name of a Polish street artist Jola Kudela.
She specialises in large scale paste-ups, featuring classical paintings recreated using contemporary models. She combines her passion for Renaissance art with her skills in image manipulation and digital composition (while not doing street art she works as a motion graphics designer and compositing artist on blockbuster movies).
Her street art pieces include a large series of murals “Renaissance street art” in Warsaw (September, 2010), ‘Vicious Circle’” in Buenos Aires (May, 2011), a large-scale 140m2 image for the prestigious Parisian cultural festival Nuit Blanche (October, 2011) exhibited simultaneously at a street art event Forty Forty in Warsaw (October, 2011), and a series of paste-ups in Melbourne (January, 2012).
She collaborates with Agnieszka Lesiewicz, TV producer and director.

CALLIOPE
Based on the painting by an Italian early-Renaissance painter Cosimo Tura, which can be seen at the National Gallery in London.
Calliope - the eldest of the Muses, the goddesses of music, song and dance -was the goddess of eloquence and epic poetry.
The model in Yola’s image is Anne Richard, the chief editor of a French art magazine HEY! (www.heyheyhey.fr) While being a performance artist herself, she is also a mentor to young artists, assuming the role of a modern day Calliope.
THE REMORSE OF ORESTES
Based on the painting by a French academic painter William-Adolphe Bouguereau.
Orestes – In Greek mythology, Orestes was the prince who, following the order of gods, avenged the murder of his father, King Agamemnon, by killing his own mother, Clytemnestra. He was pursued relentlessly by the Furies, female spirits of justice and vengeance who drove men mad.
In Yola’s image Orestes, his mother and the furies, are contemporary Londoners who are no royals nor deities, and who solve their conflicts by following their own judgment and sense of morality.
