Abstractly Compounded Portraits

Martin Satí Creates Gorgeous Portraits Out of Abstract Forms

— March 19, 2013 — Art & Design
Seville-based artist Martin Satí creates incredible illustrations of celebrity portraits. The artist starts his illustrations from the center and gradually extends his forms outwardly. The outcome is fantastically colorful and vibrant portraits of celebrities such as Scarlett Johansson, all made up of abstract lines and shapes.

The artist's bio states that his work is "a sober and visceral mix. An attempt to express what there is inside things; the energy, the evilness, the passion…everything without losing balance and form."

This multi-layered work is very intricate and requires the viewer to observe each layer. The experimental nature of the artist's technique is very admirable and creates gorgeous visuals that are eye-catching and stylish.

His vision and thought behind the artistry becomes clearer as one investigates the artist's views and brings the whole work back together.
