RedApe’s Twisted Pop Icons
"My approach is simple; our words and our actions leave permanent traces which we then carry with us for life, like tattoos."
Frank Deniel, aka RedApe, is known in the art world for his imaginative twists on pop icons, celebrities, and society!

“My work essentially revolves around portraits of people and society. My approach is simple; our words and our actions leave permanent traces which we then carry with us for life, like tattoos. I like to toy with graphic conventions, with our visual universe to make it serve my own creations. For this reason, I create my series of portraits as nude fragments of tattooed bodies which tell a story of the traces left by our society, our world.” – Frank Deniel, aka RedApe.
