Emerging Talent — The Surreal Imagery of Martin Marcisovsky

Dublin-based photographer Martin Marcisovsky captures subjects placed in distinctly dream-like landscapes. There is a feeling of voyeurism as you look at these lonely figures. The subjects seem to be either lost in their own contemplations or moving forward on some sort of mystery quest with their backs to the viewer. Lord of the Rings meets Dune with a dash of Salvador Dali – sometimes fantasy, sometimes sci-fi these surreal presentations of the deep corners of the artist’s mind are wildly creative. Click through images above to enter some awesomely bizarre worlds.

I asked the artist to elaborate a bit on these insanely cool images:

“Whether the subject is a child or an adult, they each evoke their own level of self-discovery. Essentially, there are two ways to interpret each image—as a representation of feeling lost and isolated or a visual interpretation of contemplatively being in tune with oneself. It’s up to the viewer’s own intuitive perspective to decide how they interpret the intriguing series of works.”

    Nice read. I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on that. He actually bought me lunch since I found it for him! Thus let me rephrase: Thanx for lunch!

    You actually make it appear so easy together with your presentation however I find this topic to be actually one thing that I think I would never understand. It sort of feels too complicated and very broad for me. I’m taking a look ahead in your subsequent post, I¡¦ll attempt to get the dangle of it!
