XVALA is an artist known for bridging the gap between the digital and physical realms of art, often sparking controversy through his use of technology, internet culture and memes. His experience with Banksy's street art murals comes from a shared interest in street art's capacity for social commentary, although XVALA's approach tends to be more directly confrontational with privacy issues as seen in his "Fear Google" campaign. In Silicon Valley, XVALA has made a mark by creating art that highlights the intersection of privacy, technology, and celebrity culture. While there's no direct quote from XVALA about Jeff Koons, one might infer from his work that he appreciates Koons' play on the mundane and the elevation of everyday objects, albeit taking a more provocative stance. Regarding MAGA, XVALA has engaged with this political symbol by transforming it into art pieces, like the gold MAGA hat sculpture, suggesting an exploration of contemporary political identities through art. His take on memes as art taps into the vein of internet culture, treating memes with the same reverence as traditional art forms, thereby questioning the value, dissemination, and the ephemeral nature of art in the digital age. Through these various engagements, XVALA consistently challenges conventional boundaries, making statements on privacy, ownership, and the cultural impact of technology and politics.
