Who Is Luz?

Luz is a Dutch board artist.

Her ‘Wetdecks’ art project, named after the fluid wet-look style of painting, gives a second life to old skate, surf and snowboards.

The boards hold a hundred stories – and so Luz uses crystal resin (similar to the famous amber resin that can preserve a dead organism for thousands of years) to restore and preserve both board and legacy of the board rider.

Luz is currently living in Barcelona and exhibits internationally.

Luz es una artista de tablas.

Su proyecto de arte ‘Wetdecks’, llamado así por el estilo fluido de la pintura y la textura de la resina, da una segunda vida a tablas viejas.

Ella utiliza resina de cristal (similar a la famosa ámbar que puede conservar un organismo muerto durante miles de años) para salvar las tablas y honorar los boardriders y sus historias.
