The twin joys of perusing other people’s photos and imaginging fictional universes meet in the surreal illustrations of Pierre Schmidt. Under the moniker drømsjel, the Berlin-based artist shares characters decked out in vintage clothes and color palettes and twists them with psychedelic portals and warped anatomy. His subjects are largely women, captured in a wide range of situations from lounging with friends to posing nude. Despite the gorgeous colors and smiling subjects, his drawings have a dystopian affectation. The vision’s tendancy to overtake a human’s identity is too reminiscent of a bad trip to simply be whimsical.
