Signed by Rebecka Skog, a talented Swedish artist who grew up and lives in Tenerife, the "Surf en el Sur" Capsule is a tribute to surf culture and the South of Tenerife.
The greatest inspiration came from the identity elements of this Canary Island region, particularly Playa de Las Américas, where the event - an essential point on the international surf agenda - organized by Las Américas Surf Pro takes
place, and the philosophy of Lightning Bolt.
ABOUT REBECKA SKOG
Born in Sweden in 1986, Rebecka Skog moved to Tenerife with her family at the age of 7. Since then, her daily and constant connection with the world of design is no surprise, given that she is the daughter and granddaughter of illustrators and designers.
She has worked in advertising agencies, editorial offices, and photographic studios, both in the Canary Islands and in cities such as Madrid, London, and Copenhagen. Rebecka has held national and international exhibitions, including in London and Philadelphia. Her work has been featured in magazines such as Elle, Cosmopolitan, and Vogue.
Her greatest inspiration comes from her travels and cultural experiences gathered from the various countries she has visited. Following the Lagom philosophy, she embraces a sustainable, balanced, and calm lifestyle with the belief that "less is more".
As a sports enthusiast, with a particular love for swimming and yoga, she is also passionate about surfing. Having lived in Playa de Las Américas, surfing became an integral part of her daily routine, providing both observation and inspiration.
“Mi pura fuente de inspiración es el sonido del mar y de la naturaleza en general, no puedo estar sin la naturaleza”.
Through a composition of geometric elements balanced with other organic components, a characteristic style of Rebecka Skog, the aim is to represent surfing and the energy it conveys. This is reflected in a colorful, cheerful, youthful, and spontaneous style.
In the illustration influenced by the minimalism movement, flat and vibrant colors, along with typical elements of surfing, the island (palms, Teide volcano, sun, sea...) and its protagonists (the surfers) blend together to create art with energies as positive as those of surfing.
