Artevo (Art Evolving) is a holistic art concept that combines visual communication from cave paintings to surrealism with modern technology.
Artevo also introduces a new way of pricing art, as each High End print (Silisec metallic) doubles it price without a set limit of prints.
All high end prints are approx 1.5x1m in size (5x3.5 feet)
The artist behind Artevo is Vesa Kivinen. He was originally educated as a film director in the UK.
"The process starts by me using a woman’s body as a canvas. The end result consists of traditional painting, body painting, photography and a few undisclosed factors, which I call Artevo". - Vesa Kivinen

Reviews:
Otso Kantokorpi / Kauppalehti (in Finnish)
“Witness history as though it were being lived today; and imagine the present through the eyes of tomorrow.” - Rory Winston, reviewer for NY Resident
"It is like primitive rites that have become flesh and colors" - Otso Kantokorpi, Kauppalehti (Finnish "Trade paper")
"Vesa Kivinen got sick of explaining his technique so he just gave it a name"
- Pauliina Panttilä, Suomen Kuvalehti (Finnish "Time" mag)
"Vesas's series of bodypainted females are, to me, fantastical sexual portrayals of the mysteries locked within women. These images have auras of ancient beauty and secrets. Fantastic in every sense of the word." -Editors note, Rash Magazine
"Without reservation, the artist noticeably loves women and puts them and their emotions onto a pedestal where everyone can worship what in everyday life and routine we all have lost touch with, even women themselves". -Lili Srdic / TD (Art and Design)
