“Graphic portraits of girls in vivid colour — street, anime and human nature”
Angelica Orquin, also known as Selah Viee, is a Filipino New Contemporary artist who uses graphic portraits of girls to create visual narratives. She also holds a Doctor of Dental Medicine from Emilio Aguinaldo College (2022).
Inspired by the many faces of human nature, she uses vibrant and distinctive colour combinations to set off the very idea of humanity. Her work brings together her experience as a street artist, her upbringing in urban environments, and her love of anime, kawaii and street culture — exploring perspective, the psychological and the spirit of adventure through painting and street art.
