Although I’ve grown accustomed to this talented photographers’ penchant for flawless fashion, fine art and pop culture captures, I can only describe the Ajani Charles 'Gum Drops and Fuzzy Bears' photo series as downright sinister.
A thread of fear is strung throughout this incredible shoot, as bloodied and decaying zombies torment a terrified tween. The Ajani Charles Gum Drops and Fuzzy Bears series taps into the darker elements of the human psyche, depicting a nightmarish reality. This frightening series is yet another visionary concept that has many anticipating what’s next to come from Ajani.
Along with the re-launch of his photography company’s website, more surrealist illustrations by Ajani Charles will be on display at Gallery C.C. in Toronto on Saturday, December 3rd, 2011. To find out more information on the show check out Ajani’s blog.
