Spanish Illustrator Challenges The Minds Of His Audience With 27 Thought-Provoking Illustrations
Rafael Alvarez is a Spanish illustrator whose works portray painfully familiar scenarios. Except the artist creates his illustrations in a way that highlights a completely different angle. An angle that is usually quite shocking.
The ability to shock seems to be a vital component of the artist's illustrations - even required to challenge the minds of content readers whose attention span gets only smaller with each passing day. According to the artist, although it's difficult, it's important to tell the difference between sensationalism and truth or else we run a risk of losing our critical thinking and ability to care about anything at all.
So scroll down and see for yourself!

Actually selling this kind of "mobile phone holder" would probably lower the number af accidents
Looks like the federal reserve eating away at retirement savings by printing more money & causing inflation.
So, that geek is actually a sexual predator who is looking at his new victim?
Damn when I looked at the phone though. This shows people marry for the wrong reasons and are not ready to get married. She can't even realistically love her new husband. Eventually the VR glasses will have to come off.
So depressing these illustrations. I'll go and see the cute foxes pictures by the Finnish photographer.
I really like this one but if it has a message other than romance is nice I'm missing it.
The freedom of the press is grave danger. The pOTUS bans certain reporters because they challenge him. If you can't stand up the press, how can you stand up to the rest of us? People are being told don't believe the press, fake news. There has always been propaganda and lies (remember the movie Mr. Smith Goes to Washington?) However, we have stood up to it. Now the press is being silenced. Welcome to the Gulag.
the same pic, two times? and a german text above? I don't think this one is from the spanish illustrator, especially because they look alike but have different styles.
The only meaning I get is that the "painter" (very unskilled) just used an "artistic" pretest to see the girl naked, like the ancient excuse "I'm a producer and I'm going to make you a star". After some time she'll ask him "how it's going?" and he, with a long string of drool next to the side of his mouth..."hmmm ? ah yes! fine, very fine". Just a simple pervert, no hidden powerful message hidden anywhere.
I think this is very few people are real anymore or very few people see things as they truly are.
We've strayed from the true spirit of Christmas for the sake of material things.
The decisions and mental health of past generations can have an impact on the future.
Another illustration for the short story "Circuit Builders" by Don Peteroy, published in Playboy Magazine.
Victims are everywhere and the other half of the population is only now starting to wake up to that. (Hint: Look at the two women. They both look worried. The men have their backs turned and seem oblivious except for the one reading the paper.)
Wow, thought-provoking illustrations that are about the evils of technology! Haven't seen this on BP before..... That being said, the non-technology ones were pretty good and definitely well-drawn.
These are very moving and thought-provoking. I had to actually study some of these at length to understand the ideas being presented in the illustrations.
The illustration style is gorgeous but some of the messages could be a little more nuanced...
