Leonora Carrington: A Visionary Surrealist Master
Leonora Carrington is one of those rare artists whose life was just as fascinating as the work she created. Born in 1917 in England, Carrington defied the conventions of her time, escaping a life of privilege to pursue art and her own brand of surrealism. Her paintings, full of mysterious figures, dreamlike landscapes, and a touch of the occult, invite us to step into a world where the ordinary rules don't apply—and that's precisely the point.
Junji Ito: The Master of the Macabre
If you've ever felt a chill run down your spine while turning the pages of a manga, there's a good chance Junji Ito is to blame. Known for his spine-tingling tales and unnerving illustrations, Ito has firmly established himself as a master of horror. The way that Ito has become a horror icon in the west is astounding, especially when you consider how much of a moderate success he is in his home country of Japan. But Ito’s work is everywhere, adaptations on Cartoon Network, tattoos, cosplay, makeup tutorials, toys, clothes, and merch.
