The illustrations and drawings of Dexter Maurer

The works of illustrator Dexter Maurer, currently based in Martigny, Switzerland, transport us into fantastic worlds, where bizarre creatures battle with humans in a surreal scenery of conquer and defeat.

Some drawings bring to light human fears, worries and emotions, while others reveal solitude, sadness and a macabre imagery, in a constant switch from static to dynamic, from intense to mild colours or even black and white, depending on the depicted story or state of mind.

The details, the recurring symbols and motifs corresponding to the themes approached by the artist, the range of colours and the narrative, all define an unique and very interesting style, which we invite you to explore in the following selection.
