Unusual Creative Work of Gatis Pakalns

I have no idea what Latvian creative Gatis Pakalns was on when he dreamed up these images, but I would like to try some! It’s like a hardcore wresting-meets-nursery-school vibe.

I am really drawn to these images. They are exceptionally strange, random to the extreme and really really colorful. What more can you ask?

Implications - Random, strange images find their ideal place amongst today's free-spirited consumer. Inhibitions and limitations are particularly unwelcome within the youth demographic of today, whose values generally revolve around freedom of thought. Those looking to spread their message to the younger demographic as a whole will thus have to look beyond rules and regulations for inspiration.
