THE IMPOSSIBLE CITYSCAPES OF VASCO MOURAO

Oh dear. (Via)

Vasco Mourao is a Portuguese artist, an obsessive one. His wicked cool illustrations revolve around architectural artifacts and impossible perspectives, taking a lot of time and thought in the details and ornaments.

As I was browsing his work, it kind of reminded me of the conceptual art done for Spirited away( Miyazaki's movie); fantastical structures rendered carefully as if constructing a catalogue of building techniques( not unlike some of Piranesi's work). After all, Vasco is an architect too. Check out more of his amazing, intricate work after the break!
