Drenched in The Rain of Dreams: Dimitri Drjuchin
Creation is a spiritual process, healing and transformation in a multitude of ways. This is certainly true for New York-based artist and musician Dimitri Drjuchin, who bravely embraces Christian iconography to create new levels of perceived reality and visions of self-representation through a clever combination of cultural metaphors and visual symbology. Drjuchin’s comical and surreal imagery extends beyond the general idea of downfall and craftily turns it into a cheerful and optimistic reflection on the human condition. By imbuing the real with highly colorful geometric compositions, Drjuchin’s paintings, murals and art posters unveil a refreshingly authentic foray into cosmic communion and happiness. It comes as no surprise that Dimitri painting adorns the cover of “Fear Fun“, Josh Tillman’s first release since his departure from Fleet Foxes under the new moniker Father John Misty.

DON’T FEED THE MONSTERS: Jakob Tolstrup
Riotously honest and outrageously humorous , Danish artist Jakob Tolstrup’s artistic oeuvre is a treasury of illustrated caricatures of modern society in all its ordinary eccentricities. Born in 1983, Tolstrup has a background in graffiti which inspired him to expand his own artistic experimentation with a variety of techniques, materials and mediums, including paintings, sculpture, drawing and mixed media on canvas. Although his painterly style shares some similarities with Mad Magazine’s iconography, his works tend to expose the social forces that direct human (and animal) behavior in a quite unique and personal way. Jakob Tolstrup has recently exhibited some of his works of art at Voo Store in Berlin. Today we talk to the artist about the past experiences and cultural influences that affected his art.
