The Art of Mr. Klevra

Italian artist Mr. Klevra knows no boundaries between the past and the present, tradition and technology. Balanced somewhere midway on the spectrum between surreal and cartoonish, his paintings and murals combine pop culture and Orthodox Christian iconography with a sci-fi sensibility. In his world, a new kind of sanctity is created when human and animal characters are juxtaposed with sacred symbols and rich hues like burgundy, deep blue and gold typically seen in religious art. Take a look at some images courtesy of the artist.
