Fabian is an illustrator from Santiago, Chile who brings famous people of the past, like Marilyn Monroe, Che Guevara and Salvador Dali back to life in the twenty-first century. While letting the classic stars keep their significant style, he transformed them into icons of our present time. This resulted in colorful and edgy illustrations that make these old heroes of ours look like hipsters and rockstars. The work of Fab Ciraolo makes it immediately clear that he has a very interesting outlook on this world. His pieces combine re-imagined elements of nostalgic popular culture with fantastical sci-fi standards and beautiful space-like atmospheres. Incorporating classic cartoon characters, fairy tale favorites and edgy popular icons, Ciraolo constructs compelling and enchanting artwork that stirs up whimsical feelings for the past while keeping one foot forward. We recently caught up with Ciraolo and got some insight into his process and where his surreal scenes take root. You can chek more bout him at the links below.
