This year's visual is by illustrator Alex Besikian
With clear lines and blunt forms, the artist evokes a cinema shaped by movements, familiar and elusive all at once. From morsels of images, the wave emerges to face the sundial's steadiness. Our inhibitions are carried away, unleashing imaginations and announcing a 2025 line-up of movies ready to leave its mark!
"Alex Besikian blends digital and analogical techniques in his depiction of abstract shapes that he uncovers from our every day lives landscape. This Paris-based artist’s artworks offer a colorful mosaic of digital work, paper drawings and artistic texture collages based on old photographs that he uncovers."
