Kurdish-British artist Tishk Barzanji is fascinated by the ways in which humans interact with the buildings that surround them. His surreal illustrations depict strange domestic scenes, played out within imaginary architectural settings, to explore themes of escapism, utopia and human tragedy. Psychedelic colours and an atmospheric use of light and shade lend the pictures a distinctly cinematic air that is at once beguiling and unsettling—as evidenced in this ruby red rendering of a melancholic female figure and her dachshund. Tuesday moodiness, encapsulated.
