|About the artists|

MPEACH

MPEACH aka Mariana Martin Capriles is a New York based Venezuelan multidisciplinary artist.

Her music is strongly influenced by a combination of Venezuela’s native ghetto-dance music (Changa Tuki), Afro-Caribbean beats and melodies rooted in traditional Venezuelan culture. She draws from a wide variety of electronic sounds and musical inspirations making for a dynamic sound that stands all on its own.

Her music and audiovisual art intersect and compliment each other, they are profoundly impacted by individual cultural roots while reconstructed to reflect her global internet-age upbringing. Mpeach is part of Dutty Artz roster of artists, and has completed installations at Bric Contemporary Art (Brooklyn, NY), One Art Space (New York, NY) and collaborated with the Joshua Light Show, Latin Grammy Award Winner Los Amigos Invisibles and Tropical Bass party Que Bajo? As a member of the now disbanded cult electronic band Todosantos she’s opened for headlining acts such as M.I.A and the Beastie Boys, as well as performed at SXSW, Pop Montreal and CMJ festival.

Rants from a Stranger 

Influenced by print, zines and comic books, comes this short publication that experiments with the idea of a ‘Graphic Novel’ without the presence of illustrated characters and relying solely on hand-lettering. Rants from a Stranger is a series of ‘Typographic Novels’ hand-lettered and written by Isabel Urbina while in Brooklyn, NY and Caracas, Venezuela.
