The Absorbing 3D Work of Filip Hodas

Filip Hodas, an illustrator based in Prague, makes 3D works and animations that often reference pop culture, everyday objects rendered in unexpected motion, and corporate products rendered in tongue-in-cheek, elaborate scenes. The 24-year-old says that these works come out of a pursuit in becoming better in 3D software.

Filip Hodas, an illustrator based in Prague, makes 3D works and animations that often reference pop culture, everyday objects rendered in unexpected motion, and corporate products rendered in tongue-in-cheek, elaborate scenes. The 24-year-old says that these works come out of a pursuit in becoming better in 3D software.

“In 2015, I started doing daily renders to improve my 3D workflow and explore possibilities of Cinema 4D, Octane render and bunch of other tools,” he says.

Hodas seems to tap video game culture, in particular, to offer the unexpected. Recent musings used iconography from Super Mario Bros., Space Invaders, Pac-Man, and entire consoles. Take his “Spacestations,” which are Playstation consoles reimagined as bases on an alien planet. As both stills and an animation, the artist is able to take the architecture of yesterday’s devices and make them believable, yet wholly new objects.

Yulia Brodskaya’s Upbeat Paper Cut Work

Russian artist Yulia Brodskaya creates playful illustrations, installations and paper cut works using a unique method she developed after leaving her graphic design job in 2006. The artist rolls tiny strips of colorful paper into spirals that she aggregates into larger shapes, creating textural works that lie somewhere on the horizon between two and three dimensions. Her whimsical, springy work invites a sense of optimism. While paper cut art is typically a small-scale medium, Brodskaya often creates mural-sized artworks and installations for commercial clients, using paper to transform rigid spaces into fantastical realms.

Jacek Yerka’s Imaginative Paintings Illustrate a Bizarre Universe

theory_of_strings Polish artist Jacek Yerka's paintings invite us into a world where things are not what they seem. Caves turn into gaping dragons' mouths, houses float above the clouds, and gardens become seemingly infinite puzzles of time and space. The artist blurs the boundaries between the biological and the mechanical, creating strange hybrids of animals, architecture, and geological formations. Yerka began his career making band posters in the 1970s and has been exhibiting his work in Poland for decades.

Patryk Hardziej’s Illustrations of Dreamlike Adventures

Patrick Hardziej is an illustrator from Gdynia, Poland whose surreal works of art immerse viewers in the dreamlike adventures of his characters. Often donning detached facial expressions, the everyday guys in his works find themselves in adrenaline-inducing scenarios that we experience vicariously as viewers. Whether traveling through space or battling sea monsters, Hardziej's characters are humorous, and never self-serious, much like the artist's quirky visual style itself.
