BRIAN WALKER - A plastic obsession

Sydney based artist, Brian Walker, credits his desire to seamlessly fuse fashion, illustration and the element of surprise as the driving creative force behind his artworks.

In a time where the line between hyper-realities and those of our own is becoming finer, the Sydney artist's work speaks a relative language. The digital artist is inspired by surreal landscapes, the evolution of fashion and changing popular culture. Walker takes these inspirational genres and merges them with his concept of 'using photography as a tool to represent the ideas of the impossible'.

Noting David La Chapelle as a major influence, Walker strives to create a hyper-real visual language which at first glance appears real, and at second, evolves into the surreal. More of the Sydney artists work can be seen at lickthesun.com
