Hong Kong-born illustrator Vincent Hui creates work that exudes a controlled chaos that other illustrators seem to have great trouble duplicating.
Educated at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, Vincent Hui combines the elements of steampunk culture and surrealism in his works to draw viewers into his complicated and tumultuous world. Some of his paintings feature several loosely related subjects experiencing a variety of divergent emotions. One of his paintings features what appears to be a faceless and reading young boy who sits next to his formally dressed father and demure mother.
Vincent Hui's images are confusing yet illuminating. The focus of his work isn't on understanding the pieces as a whole, but rather on the pieces that compose it. His deft blending of styles showcases the work of an illustrator with a bright future in the art industry.
