Gladys Orteza transforms stock market charts into landscapes

-
Giulia Guido

Those who think that market trends and illustration are her worlds that are impossible to connect surely do not know Gladys Orteza, known on Instagram as @stoxart. 

During the day Gladys Orteza is a visual designer for Nike, but in her free time she enjoys transforming the boring and complicated stock market graphs into beautiful nocturnal landscapes. 

After finding the right graphic on Robinhood or Yahoo Finance, the artist is inspired by her travels and the environment around her to digitally create illustrations that show breathtaking landscapes, illuminated by the white light of the Moon. 

Thus, the actions of Apple, Disney, Tesla, Ford and many other companies become the tops of imaginary mountains, deep valleys, skylines of impossible cities and much more. 

With the illustrations she shares on Instagram, Gladys Orteza shows how even graphic designers can make us travel with imagination and that you don’t have to be an expert on the subject to get lost between their numbers and their lines.
