Lean Reboja

Lean Reboja, whose works have been attributed towards illustration art more than just traditional painting, have created works in formal art settings such as galleries and pop up art exhibition venues in the local scene.

BIOGRAPHY

Lean Reboja, was born in Davao, but is currently residing in Cebu. He was born on February 18, 1991. He studied at the University of the Philippines Cebu.

Lean also goes by the moniker name “Leanderthal” which is commonly associated with the Dreamcloud icon, noticeable in his works. Each piece is intricately done with a narrative of a snippet of his life, an aspect dissected by many of his collectors.

Reboja delves into creating sporadic and colorful characters, usually having a closely relative appearance with beasts and animals. These are then set against each other, a juxtaposition of them all together in one art composition. The signature figure of the “Dreamcloud”, a cloud-riding biographical character whose arms are raised to heaven is placed often on each artwork, depicting the artist as an individual that fervently aims in achieving his ambitions in life.

Lean’s autobiographical themes usually signify events and memories, human behavior, experiences and emotions set into a metaphorical way of artistic expression. His art relays all these concepts in a riddle packed with intricately drawn and painted elements.
