Tishk Barzanji’s Mixed-Media Works Explore Architecture, Western Experience

Tishk Barzanji plays with architecture and perspective in pastel-hued landscapes. The mixed-media works use both digital and photographic techniques to create these absorbing, yet off-kilter explorations. The use of varied sources takes the viewer in and far out of reality within a single work.

“My work is inspired by Ancient history, the Modernism movement, and my experiences in London since moving here in 1997,” the artist says. “My process is about space, colour, deconstruction, breaking boundaries, understanding the living space in this fast moving world and human interactions within these spaces. I lived in Dalston (London) back in 1998, where my passion for architecture and art began. The people I grew up with and the environment I was around, shaped my ideas to what I practice now.”

The eerie works of William Basso blend painting, drawing, photography, collage, and sculpture.

Miami-based artist Andrew Soria's color-saturated landscapes might appear completely fictitious, but he creates his digital artworks using his original photography and a heavy dose of PhotoShop. Soria stitches together and flattens the cityscapes he shoots, making them appear cartoonish by accentuating each building's unique shape and features. He often pays homage to the street art and decor of the local area. Some of his pieces feature murals by artists such as Chor Boogie and Shepard Fairey while others incorporate businesses' signage. Devoid of human inhabitants, Soria's cities appear otherworldly with their all-too-pristine contours and candy-colored skies.
