Anton Gudim is a highly talented comic artist hailing from Moscow, Russia. He has a unique and imaginative artistic style that is characterized by a distinct blend of weirdness, sarcasm, and thought-provoking themes. Anton's illustrations and comics are expressive and evocative, and they offer a window into his rich imagination.

One of the standout features of Anton's art is that it is dialogue-free, making it accessible and enjoyable to audiences from all backgrounds and cultures. He often tackles socially relevant issues in his work, and while he doesn't set out to create comics that are outright hilarious, his dark sense of humor often results in art that is both thought-provoking and amusing.

Artist’s 41 New Clever Illustrations About Modern Society

Just like in previous articles, Bored Panda reached out to Anton Gudim, the author behind these comics. We started off the interview by asking the artist about any significant inspirations or influences in his life that may have played a role in shaping and honing his artistic style.

"It is challenging for me to identify the specific factors that have shaped my artistic style, but I will attempt to highlight the main influences. Growing up in Russia in the 90s, I was exposed to a blend of traditional and Western culture. My older brother and I were big fans of comics, American cartoons, and video game consoles. We would often create our own comics featuring characters from American culture." Anton told us.

"As I grew older, art was not my primary occupation. I studied and graduated with a degree in engineering, focusing on mathematics. As an engineer, I found my work unfulfilling and felt a longing for something more. This led me to return to my childhood hobbies, but now with a more mature perspective and worldview, which I apply to my comics, in order to make them relatable and thought-provoking."

We wanted to gain insight into Gudim's creative process and techniques for overcoming any obstacles he may face as an artist. The artist shared that despite the projects he has been working on being an eight-year-long endeavor, he still enjoys the process of creating comics and sharing them with their audience.

"Even after 7 years, I still find joy in creating comics for my projects and sharing them with my audience. However, alongside the artistic aspect, there are also various administrative and business-related tasks that need to be managed on a daily basis such as preparations for exhibitions, commercial projects, collaborations, and the preparation of materials for a future book, signing acts, and contracts, and so on.

While the workload and schedule can be demanding and at times overwhelming, working in this rhythm for a long time is tiring, but I am able to manage these episodes, and overall, I am content with my work."

The artist also shared that he has received a variety of reactions to his work ranging from positive to negative.

"I've received a wide range of reactions to my work, from delight to hatred (who would have thought, this is social media after all). In this regard, the most significant thing for me is the assessment of people close to me and people involved in creativity."

Mobile Task Force Unit Epsilon-11, designated Nine-Tailed Fox, has entered the facility. All remaining survivors are advised to stay in the evacuation shelter, or any other safe area, until the unit has secured the facility. We'll start escorting the personnel out when the escaped SCPs have been re-contained.
