Cool New Artist: Javier Jaen

I'm really intrigued by the work of designer Javier Jaen, recently featured on drawn! His use of puns and metaphors is really sharp and clever. His artist statement:

His work is in close relation with symbolic, ludicrous and two-sided languages, where subtractions and additions abound. He is interested in wordplay and the formal relations between literary and visual language. He looks for narrative and aesthetic scenarios within close and every day experienced contexts. His works involve techniques such as collage, appropriation, the object and image recycling.
