I got this blurb about Macay from the Brick Lane Gallery - Macay has been working with paper collage since 2001 coming from a Fine art background. She began doing street art in 2005 making suits for street dogs in Santiago (her hometown). Since 2007 she has been pasting photocopies and drawings in the street as a support for her stories - collages depicting unreal landscapes and nature mixed with half human/half animal characters.

A good evening down at the Brick Lane Gallery despite the foul weather and a good crowd. Here are a few abstracted bits and pieces. These are just teasers - go and see the real thing! I met quite a few of the cool artists. And also RJ of Vandalog!
These are by Roa, Macay, Chanoir, Grems and El Bocho.Comments [0]
An interesting street art event kicks off tomorrow in Brick Lane. It is called "The Brick Lane Zoo" and is being hosted at the The Brick Lane Gallery.
The photo shows one of the artists - Macay - earlier today doing her paste-ups outside the gallery. And here is the blurb for the whole thing: The Brick Lane Gallery is proud to present “The Brick Lane Zoo” where exotic and wild animals fresh from the city streets cross the globe to showcase at The Brick Lane Zoo. 15 international Street and Urban Artists from the UK, France, Spain, USA, Argentina, Belgium and Germany come together under one roof armed with spraycans, paste ups and stencils to unleash their wild beasts into our urban jungle. Feral animals will roam the gallery walls and stray between the visitors. The upper canopy will be adorned with a striking array of animals ranging from skeletal rhinos and grizzly bears to happy fish. Combining the exceptional talents of our street artists the walls of the gallery will come to life.
