Trip Out With Matei Apostolescu
Matei Apostolescu also known as Beaucoupzero at Deviant Art is an artist with some mad mad skills. If you’ve ever taken a trip, and no I don’t mean to the seaside or the local shops, I mean LSD, shrooms, or even Peyote and DMT if you live out in a South American desert, then you should find a lot of Matei’s work rather familiar. It’s almost like he’s peeling the skin of reality away and revealing the gloriously juicy sub-atomic, kinetic and psychic structure of life itself. There oh so many influences to his work you’d need an anthropology degree to get a handle on it, Aztec, Psychedelic, Native American, Aboriginal, Indian, you name it, if there’s a mind melting pattern out there, it’s probably providing the face for one of his works.
Here’s what he has to say for himself “I`m a freelance illustrator, I live in Bucharest, Romania, EU. I use all kinds of tools ranging from rotring pencils, markers, spray paint to Wacom tablet, Photoshop and Illustrator. I try to keep my work as freestyle and fun as possible.”
I especially love Matei’s cityscapes which are absolutely phenomenal. Take a look for yourself:
