Paul Fuentes, diseñador y fotógrafo mexicano
Paul Fuentes crea imágenes sencillas y complejas al mismo tiempo. Extraños híbridos que casan objetos completamente dispares, creando poesía a través de las imágenes que suena increíblemente armónica. Es la manera que tiene el artista de despertar una sonrisa con un objetos tan cotidianos como la comida, el tabaco, material de oficina o unos zapatos.
Detrás de la apariencia divertida, casi infantil, de sus mixes está el trabajo de fotografía y edición que Paul Fuentes controla al milímetro. Un ejercicio técnico y creativo que comienza con el nacimiento de una idea, de la cábala sobre el mejor apareamiento entre objetos, que muchas veces aparece gracias a juegos de palabras, chistes o situaciones cotidianas.

Paul Fuentes is a graphic designer from Mexico.
In his minimalist images, everyday objects (such as animals or food) are depicted and twisted into surrealist and humorous artwork. With his Sushi-cat or Floral Pizza he aims to put a smile on your face. The pastel coloured backgrounds give life to his minimalistic pop-mashup designs.
Paul started making evocative images on his Instagram account using common objects to create idiosyncratic compositions, using minimalism, art pop and pastel colors, and he quickly gathered up a following. For each composition, he mashes up everyday objects to create a new, visual play on words, objects, and cultural associations.
