Erik Johansson

I was really intrigued by Johansson’s work when I first went through them. Most of them have a gloomy tone to it not because of the colors but because of the vibe it gives. Some of the pictures give you something to think about in your every day life. The pieces also change on the point of view that each person looks at it. His work is similar to Magritte and Escher because of how abstract they are but there is noticeable that Johansson’s work was more influenced by the work of Escher. These both were pieces of art that had optical illusions in them in which it could be many different things depending on the person who sees it.
