What happens when the world of art and architecture come together? That's the world that Brooklyn artist Olalekan Jeyifous explores. He recently sent me some images from his series, City Settlements, and I fell in love with the city spaces that he brought to life on paper.
Worn, and reminiscent of areas of so many cities I have been to, each piece is part of a narrative that the viewer is free to create.
As Olalekan states, "I try to evoke a notion of 'place' rooted in immanence and possiblity".
Anything is possible in these digital media cityscapes. You can explore more of his incredible work at Vigilism and purchase prints from his Vigilism Etsy shop.
FREAKING RAD!!!
ReplyDeleteThe pieces feel very nostalgic, isolated and ominous.
A really interesting style I have never seen before.
ReplyDeleteIt has the clean, crisp lines of still-life Japanimation. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you all like these pieces. Edwina, I agree. They do have an anime feel.
