Toronto designer/artist Alex McLeod’s 3D digital renderings of various fantasy landscapes are seriously off the charts. They’re so gloriously, glossily fake that for a second they almost seem real. They’re like snapshots of dreams, or brochure photos to some sort of surreal, plastic, rainbow-filled holiday spot. The kind of spot where volcanoes erupt with spring water and clouds are transparent helium balloons. It’s landscape photography meets Saturday morning cartoons.
His site also offers up some completely kick ass wallpapers – like this one, which is up on my computer as we speak. If you’re going to be in Toronto, McLeod has a solo show coming up in June at Switch Contemporary. I wanna see these bad boys in person. And maybe buy one. A guy can dream…
sexy shit
