The work of James Jirat Patradoon ispure, electrically charged visual nirvana. Shouts of neon colorwrithe their way through the coarse black veins of Patradoon’s linework, reaching the fevered pitch of aesthetic punk rock. Theresulting explosions of voltage and lightning are some sort ofneo-illustration portraits of crazed, masked biker bandits and theirdevil worshipping women. Violence and masculinity are prominentthemes, but also an idea of true freedom reigns in each piece callingout to the viewer to live their life wild, free and at the speed oflight. James lives and works in Sydney, Australia. – Zach Tutor
