{"id":47867,"name":"Matias Kobolder","url":"https:\/\/matiaskobolder.com\/","description":"My name is Matias Piantanida (AKA Matias KOBOLDER), I am an Argentinian-Italian illustrator living in Germany since 2017. As a self-taught artist I try to give life to different characters that I describe as personalities that were always trapped in my head and that after several years I could, finally, set them free again. These characters or personalities are so eager to get out of my head to the outside world that they pile up, step on each other, push each other, but in the end, they are organized and placed on the sheet of paper.\r\nWhat I try to present in my drawings, and they are always present in one way or another, is total freedom, sexual equality, liberalism and tolerance. \r\nI don't need a reason to draw, I don't need permission to give life or release one of these characters, time will give them a name and a reason to be, they can't always be catalogued or named at the exact moment of their creation, they develop, they show themselves and at the right moment they bloom, many times I look for the reaction of the viewer, what he sees in that character. What does it bring back? What does it make you think? What questions does it raise?\r\nMy goal as an artist is, of course and first, to bring joy, imagination and make people react and enjoy at least for a moment.","link":"https:\/\/illustratorscontest.tapirulan.it\/en\/author\/matias-kobolder-piantanida\/","slug":"matias-kobolder-piantanida","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/558a0911a5bf27bf0a072b5a2941fee44e54578361fab9ca8916fb756116c02b?s=24&d=mm&r=g","48":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/558a0911a5bf27bf0a072b5a2941fee44e54578361fab9ca8916fb756116c02b?s=48&d=mm&r=g","96":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/558a0911a5bf27bf0a072b5a2941fee44e54578361fab9ca8916fb756116c02b?s=96&d=mm&r=g"},"meta":{"generateblocks_onboarding":[]},"acf":[],"yoast_head":null,"yoast_head_json":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/illustratorscontest.tapirulan.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/47867","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/illustratorscontest.tapirulan.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
