I didn't wanna post Zdzisław Beksiński bc I feel like its just karma farming lol. I'm not introducing people to anything particularly new or interesting. Even these paintings which I prefer are not ones I'd really wanna post.
Only reason ive posted this is bc it is widely loved
snokenkeekaguard@lemmy.dbzer0.com dw, I didn't know this artist at all until you posted these! Creepy stuff
You would be surprised. There are a lot of people who stop at Giger and don’t realized there was a greater scene of surrealists
Yeah I've been surprised here lol
Isnt the first picture just people during rush hour in japan? :p
(the works are interesting btw)
