EVERED AND SPLIT: THE GROTESQUE GRAPHITE ART OF MILES JOHNSTON
Artist Miles Johnston has two reoccurring motifs throughout his graphite drawings—division and compartmentalization. The images split his female subjects in two and often leave them faceless as their bodies viscerally spew liquid or are overcome with the likes of insects. They’re haunting with a grotesqueness that makes it impossible to look away—the details are just too compelling.
Johnston’s art is featured in the annual Moleskine Project at Spoke Art Gallery. He, along with other artists from around the world, share their work in the small books.
They looks really peaceful.

Man Ray
Man Ray was an American visual artist who spent most of his career in France. He was a significant contributor to the Dada and Surrealist movements, although his ties to each were informal.
He produced major works in a variety of media but considered himself a painter above all. He was best known for his photography, and he was a renowned fashion and portrait photographer. Man Ray is also noted for his work with photograms, which he called "rayographs" in reference to himself.
