Eiko Ojala, Illustrator, Paris

Description

This detailed paper art illustration by Eiko Ojala portrays a whimsical floating urban island against a solid blue backdrop. The upper half features a dense cluster of multicoloured skyscrapers, houses, and green trees populated by tiny silhouette figures walking, cycling, and relaxing on benches. Below the sharp ground line, an inverted subterranean layer mimics the city above in dark tones, complete with hanging roots and structural foundations. The composition employs layered paper cutouts to create distinct dimensional shadows and clean graphic forms. Soft, even studio lighting accentuates the crisp edges and textured paper surfaces throughout the piece.
