IMAGINATIONLAND

I was immediately drawn into the nostalgic fantasy of Swedish artist Johan Thornqvist. His illustrations, superimposed onto landscape and cityscape photography invoke the imaginative mythologies of Antoine de Saint-Exupery and Hayao Miyazaki. His illustrations portray an image of an old-world future....my most favourite kind!

A tip of the hat to the Cubist tradition, behold: the Sartorial Guernica
