Mactivo

Mac Salom Aka (Mactivo) was born in the city of Bogota in 1992. He graduated in advertising and marketing from San Jose University. He specialized in history of animation and art at the Central University.

In 2015, he worked as a cartoonist assistant at Nickelodeon company, where he honed his own style, with the influence of universal animation on his work. Additionally, he gained a lot of experience using technology and digital design when he worked for Freepik, creating proposal and template vectors between 2015 and 2017. Since 2010, Mactivo has analyzed different methods in plastic arts, and that same year he began drawing murals in Bogota, involving concepts and diagrams using street art techniques.

Mactivo’s main style is in the doodle technique, which as been his way of capturing and communicating all concepts, ideas, and knowledge. With his brushstrokes, the viewer can see the maximum detail and figurative collage that generates the composition configured with concepts and a saturation of techniques, characters, icons, and ideas that don’t lose the harmony of the main message.
