Born in Spain, Begoña Toledo (a.k.a Boxhead) is an internationally grown artist and fashion designer whose work is inspired by urbanism, architecture and our emotional responses to society’s rules.

She started her career in street art while living in Amsterdam as a result of her interest in its aesthetics and social changing potential.

All of Toledo’s work depict her character ‘Boxhead’.

For the artist, Boxhead represents all of us, the box holds our inner space, our fears, our dreams and ideals.

The box gives the character anonymity and a mysteriously approachable vulnerability at the same time. Boxhead questions our notions of identity and self-hood.

Toledo uses street art, canvas and digital painting, animation (2D and 3D) and sculpture as her main artistic mediums.

Some of her most acclaimed murals are: The Rumney Guggenheim 4 story building mural in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the Red Market mural for Palladium Boots, Pretty Light’s concert backdrop for New Orleans Jazz Fest, Wynwood mural for Art Basel Miami.

Her work has been shown in group and solo exhibitions all over the world including Moniker Projects, London; GoGallery, Amsterdam; Art Bastion, Miami and the grand opening of the Rumney Guggenheim Gallery, Brooklyn NYC, with Olek, Swoon, Olivia Steel and Lady Aiko.

Boxhead has been featured in HiFructose and numerous street art magazines as well as several books including ‘Women Street Artists’, ‘The Wynwood Colouring Book’ and ’New Street Art’.

Since 2021 Toledo is a prominent creator in the NFT space, focusing on digital art and contributing to the developement of Web3 and the metaverse.
