The Most Amazing Things: Amazing Illusions artwork to Express Emotion

Eighteen Year Old Boy Sebastian Eriksson Creates Surreal Artwork to Express Emotion

Amazing Illusions artwork to Express Emotion

Growing up can be a challenge, especially in the teenage years. Some people use writing or art as a creative outlet for all the emotions they keep inside.

Sebastian Eriksson is an 18-year-old up-and-coming surrealist artist living in Sweden. Not only is his artwork amazing, it's extremely thought-provoking as he adds descriptions of how his pieces relate to his life.

For instance, in the piece above, he states: "This is another paradox that I've been working on for a couple of days. It describes a person with psychological problems such as schizophrenia, insanity, depression or other mental problems. His endless screaming makes his own mind eat him up. I have periods in my life where I feel like this. I wanted to make an illustration of my thoughts and my pain within."

And for the piece immediately below: "One day I felt like I was lost and I had too much things to think about. Like I was stuck in a maze and couldn't get out."

We've all felt like Sebastian, but most of us do not have the talent to draw how we feel. It's fascinating to look into the mind of a teenager through his or her artwork. It's also an honor.
