Ornamental Ammunition Illustrations

Weapons of Mass Creation by Angryblue is Creative and Peaceful

— December 8, 2011 — Art & Design
Posters that are playful and clever, like the ones created by artist Justin Kamerer also known as Angryblue, quickly catch the attention of audiences everywhere. The print series Weapons of Mass Creation touches upon two themes that often tend to collide against each other, which are art and war; however, Angryblue's art manages to connect them in a beautiful manner.

The collection consists of three different prints. One is a tank that holds musical instruments inside, the second is a grenade that contains cooking utensils, and the third is an air bomb filled with art tools. All three have a smart message at the bottom that reads 'Weapons of Mass Creation.'

Angryblue is an illustrator who designs album arts, websites, logos, and art prints, among others.
Trend Themes
1. Creative Weaponry Design - There is a growing trend of incorporating creativity into traditional weaponry design, such as adding functionality and repurposing found objects for new purposes.
2. Artistic Commentary on War - More artists are using their work to comment on the effects of war, including the relationship between war and creativity.
3. Humorous Contradictions - There's a trend of using humorous contradictions to highlight serious issues, like the dissonance between the instruments of destruction and peace depicted in Angryblue's prints.
Industry Implications
1. Weapon Design and Manufacturing - Companies producing traditional weapons could incorporate design elements that surprise and delight, appealing to a new generation of buyers who value creativity and functionality.
2. Art and Design - Designers and artists can create thought-provoking pieces that explore the themes of war and creativity, encouraging viewers to think deeply about the relationship between these two concepts.
3. Marketing and Advertising - Agencies can incorporate humorous contradictions in the ads they create for clients, turning serious issues into more engaging and memorable content.
