KOA

Taken from his website:
His world is a universe of happy and colorfull oppresive chaos where monsters are masters and humans are slaves. Monsters fascinate him since he is a little kid. His universe is full of barbed women, dwarfs hip hop masters, clouds who laugh about humans, flying fishes who want to be rock stars, fearfull wherewolfs, ridiculous ghosts, strange dogs (Gustavio)...Mirror of our hearts his creatition takes part of our fears, fantasms for strange things. His creations are the echo of our falling civilisation where the human Insanity, violence and sex is everywhere.



There's not much more I can say about his work. However if there was something I had to say is that maybe the designs are a little too busy. Obviously this is the artists style, and a lot of time and effort has gone into crafting these wonderfully intricate pieces, but from a first glance I can't actually tell what is being communicated. It takes a few minutes to take it all in and register what is being shown, however this may well be the artist intention. His designs are not things to just be glanced at but instead to be really studied and understood. I do like the designs, especially the colours used, but I dont think they would be great advertising tools.
