PROMOS

XVALA is a provocative artist known for his transformative use of compelling celebrity artifacts and images. A graduate of Langston University in Oklahoma, XVALA has significantly influenced the Post-Internet art movement with his Fear Google and No Delete series. These projects delve into the effects of the internet on identity, privacy, and information dissemination. His collection, transformation, and public display of hacked private images challenges the boundaries between online interactions and the real world, and the controversy and backlash surrounding such displays adds an interactive layer to the art. More recently, XVALA's ongoing Meme Ranch project has examined how meme culture, both digital and physical, permeates society.
