Katherine Pendrill — July 23, 2015 — Art & Design
New York-based artist Geoff J. Kim designed a series of pop culture collages that feature famous rappers and hip-hop artists. Kim currently takes pictures for VICE, but his work has also been featured in publications such as The New York Times and Analøg. His latest work is not based on photography, but rather a collection of mixed digital media.
Each of Kim's psychedelic collages centers around a different pop culture icon. Kim specifically highlights rappers and other popular hip-hop artists such as Frank Ocean, Kendrick Lamar, Nicki Minaj and Kanye West. The pop culture collages are then adorned with an assortment of colorful mixed media. Some of the portraits feature natural elements such as plant and animal prints, while others contain more surreal decorations.
