Biography
I am Antoni Espinosa, aka Mandra, a freelance visual artist from Barcelona, Spain, currently based in Helsinki, Finland.
My Work
I'm heavily influenced by retro and vintage styles, drawing inspiration from old horror and pulp magazines, sci-fi art, as well as old movie posters and vinyl cover art. I'm a lover of films from the silent and classic eras to 80s B-movies and indie productions. My art often reflects my endless fascination with the sea, its wonders and mysteries, its lighthouses, ships and shipwrecks, and I have an almost unhealthy obsession with Herman Melville's Moby Dick.
Currently, I'm focused on creating movie posters, book covers, comics, and 2D animations.
Thanks a lot! Cheers
