the japanese illustrator known online as @avogado6, prints a stamp of irony on the illustrations he shares. His works – in the traditional style of anime– They spotlight scenarios that are as uncomfortable as they are real; moments that are perhaps imperceptible on a daily basis, but in front of us basically question all the habits that modernity has instilled in us, perhaps even involuntarily.
With some sentimentality and mystery, these images in still they reveal details about the artist’s life, although they could also be quite familiar to anyone who lives in a city. Ideas that make us wonder how accelerated rhythms shape our perception of life from day to day, how alone we feel in a space as populated as cities (or how far we are from understanding and enjoying our own solitude). ) and the extent to which technology has managed to shape our character, are just some of the perspectives on the work of @avogado6.
With two books published, she continues to add illustrations to her endless online catalogues, where she also sells accessories with her designs. But while the prolific nature of this artist is evident, his personality is partly a mystery, perhaps because he himself has championed the idea that «a picture is worth a thousand words.»
