Psychedelic Artists

Tokio Aoyama

Mixing the non secular tradition, myths, and spirits, with the track affect of hip-hop and jazz, Tokio Aoyama is growing a unique sort of creative psychedelia. His trippy artistic endeavours won’t regulate your thoughts in a manner you would count on that psychedelic artwork would, however greater in a non secular manner.

Mario Martinez

Mario Martinez, a.k.a MARS-1 paints from deep within his self-awareness. His mind-blowing paintings are full of colorful geometric forms, carefully shaped patterns, and unique textures. Altogether they create recognizable imaginative compositions made out of surreal cloudy shapes from outer space, quasi-extraterrestrial landscapes, transparent blisters, spherical objects, infinite fractures – perfect elements of his trippy prints. Martinez is making an abstract form of psy-art which features delusional imagery viewed from a perspective that you never even knew existed.
