Thinkspace Gallery in LA will soon be exhibiting “Vain Remains”, a joint show of new works by Vancouver based Camilla d’Errico and Caia Koopman of Oceanside, CA. The show will feature works composed of acrylic on canvas and wood along with mixed media on paper. This is the first time these young talents have exhibited together and their works both inform and complement each other in the gallery space beautifully.

Camilla d'Errico


About Camilla d’Errico

Camilla d'Errico is a product of her split heritage, Italian and Canadian rolled into one: Italian fiestiness, Canadian politeness, and an early addiction to Saturday morning cartoons and comics. Her first love was and still is comics. Growing up she was more often doodling sexy damsels and dragons on her textbooks than reading them. In 1998, Camilla first attended her first San Diego Comic Con where upon the moment she walked through the doors she realized that a 9–5 day job would kill her and this was what she wanted to do.
 
After a few years in the comic industry Camilla expanded her style into a variety of other ventures: snowboard decals, magazine covers, toys, clothes and the pop art gallery scene. Thanks to her relentless energy, dedication, and sleep deprivation, she has followed her dream of working creatively for a living. She is part of what may be the first art movement in Western History where women are not second-class citizens, but have an edge in the mind of the public, especially when it comes to capturing the essence of the modern woman.

"It’s about expressing what they feel and feeling what they express"

Caia Koopman

About Caia Koopman

Caia Koopman is a native of California and was born in Livermore. She majored in fine art and earned a B.A. at UC Santa Cruz, California. Santa Cruz turned out to be the place that seduced her to the local skateboarding scene.

In addition to receiving an academic education, Caia also learned to skate ramps, streets, pools, and Derby Park. Skateboarding led to skateboard graphics, and her first limited edition team T-shirt design for Santa Cruz Skateboards. After earning her art degree, she turned her attention to snowboarding and spent many winters following the snow. It was her love for the sport that inspired Caia to strive for a career creating snowboard graphics and later branching out to become a commercial artist and finally a fine artist as well.

Caia is inspired by nature, dreams, politics, and life.
