Magdiel Lopez is a digital artist whose work relies on compositing, bringing together photography, graphic design, symbolism, and bright color. Through his portfolio, Lopez creates dreamlike images by combining reality with abstract shapes and forms. Lopez often works with bright pallets with neon colors and gradients that shift from warm to cool. These choices give his work an atmospheric glow.
Formally, this work shows a deep understanding of photoshop compositing techniques such as masking and color grading. Lopez also relies on repeated patterns and shapes to create rhythm throughout his compositions.
Conceptually, his work seems to explore ideas related to cultural identity and futurism. His use of birds and organic patterns could suggest themes of transformation. For my own Under the Influence project, I want to build on the works and ideas of Magdiel Lopez by using similar methods of merging photography with symbolic graphics. I plan to work with shapes, gradients, and textures to achieve this.
