Arinze Stanley – Surreal Hyperrealism

I truly enjoy the pencil drawings by the Nigerian artist Arinze Stanley. I like how he combines a very technical skill as hyperrealism with a surreal finish.

His bold and peculiar style is also determined by his personal experience living in Nigeria, facing topics that revolves around social and political activism. You can also find him on Instagram.

Inspired – K Young

I truly enjoy the surrealist hand cut paper collages by the London based artist K Young. These interventions are incredibly detailed and well crafted, and they recall me the noir cinema in some way.

K Young says: “reimagining existing objects and turning them into something new has been a preoccupation of mine for as long as I can remember, and it is this, together with a long-held passion for photography, which has led me to my working process today. I make hand-cut paper collages from found photographic material. Using editing, reframing, splicing, layering and juxtaposition, I reassemble images until a different narrative emerges. I then make these collages into photographs. By returning the image to some semblance of its original state, I am acknowledging its legacy. To me, the circle is complete”.

Ziqian Liu – Surreal Self Portraits

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Elegant, minimalist, surreal – these are the beautiful images by the Chinese independent photographer Ziqian Liu.

All the pics are still life self portraits, where you can see an intricate and balanced interaction between her body and objects of all sorts.

This is how describes her art research: All of her work is a self-portrait. In her work, she combines her body, plants, and mirror images, constantly exploring the balanced state of peaceful coexistence between humans and nature. In terms of visual presentation, she is keen to create quiet images with a sense of rigor and order.
