'www.thisiscollosal.com' Bredan Monroe

My attention have been brought to a art like website called thisiscollosal where anything adnormal, comical, illustrative and pretty much anything art related is shown to the world, there are many different artist and creators on this website and so I've just chosen one to show.

Bredan Monroe looks at 'Topography' Map making but in art usaully using a combination of natural and artifical forms involving location in some way.

"Oakland-based artist Brendan Monroe has been on a tear lately a solo show and several group exhibitions featuring his delightfully strange human and topographic forms composed of whirling rivers and swarms of color. The artist says his artwork is mostly rooted in science and then executed through painting and sculpting, which is not hard to see given the flow of energy found in each piece that seems influenced by the flow of water, tornadoes, or the grouping of microorganisms"

This work is inspiring for my own ideas on how to invovle map design and drawing together and I defintely recommend looking at this website for Inspiration, research or for fun.
