Jeremy Profit | on Tumblr (France) - felt tip pen on paper
The visual universe of French illustrator Jeremy Profit is located somewhere in a generic suburban environment, where sprawled houses, streets and trees are the only reference points. In every scene the quiet environment has just been hit by a, non always specified, catastrophe (a natural disaster? riots? war? ). The houses reveal their fragile nature, their interiors are left exposed and the construction materials torn apart.
The detailed marker drawings depict a situation which is somehow tragic and resigned at the same time, with a sense of passive acceptance of the catastrophic event by the small passersby inhabiting the scenes: “The way I build my drawings is to put some daily life pictures with violent pictures coming from photo journalism about war, disaster that capitalism bring everywhere in the world, my drawings speak about that and about the mental depression on our society, working class has been destroyed, people are trying to survive individually on a such violent society without real hope of a collective change.” (src. article from SOCKS & Interview with Jeremy Profit on Futuristika)

Pierre Kiandjan | on Tumblr (France)
Paris-based artist Pierre Kiandjan draws his inspiration from music album artworks, optic art, and Mœbius comics. As he selects consistent color mixes, he aims to create illusion of motion, space, or temperature. The challenge consists in gathering simple shapes within complicated blendings: “I cross shadow and light effects with eclectic shades and patterns. This way, I try to shake things up a little in the realm of optic art. I usually begin my work “away from keyboard”, so I look for the best patterns, mainly feelingly. I also impose some constraints on the way I draw: using grain texture and square format.”
Kiandjan can be found with updated posts on his Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr. © All images courtesy of the artist
