Featured Work: Scary but Brilliant Masks of Culture

Today’s featured work comes from Cosmic Nugget, a quirkily original artist hailing from Scotland. They say everyone wears a mask; Cosmic Nugget gives us a glimpse of what those masks might look like.

There are a lot of things in this world that we can never explain. As an illustrator, Cosmic Nuggets conveys those feelings of not knowing, of thinking that there are far greater things in the universe that we have yet to connect with and comprehend.

Those feelings are turned into an array of signs and symbols superimposed over the faces of some of the world’s influential people in “m a s k z.” While the actual people have become unrecognizable, they have attained a surreal impression that fits the artist’s ideals and favored theme.
