Abraham
Abraham is a Filipino-American artist currently based in Chicago. After college he began to use his artistic skills as a freelance artist and has does work at some of Chicago’s top ad agencies. Armed with a double major and a unique wit, the artist uses an alternative point of view to re-imagine ideals and adds his own brand of social commentary by re-contextualizing graphic icons. He works primarily in acrylic, watercolor and ink. His work is informed by the cartoon imagery of his youth, and he counts among his influences many of the pop artists of the 1960’s. Abraham's work is often playful and colorful, depicting unique characters in odd settings. There is almost always an underlying message or story behind the work.
