VISU 1100- EXTRA BLOG POST: KEVIN DART

Kevin Dart is an artist and designer working in London. His work has been said to blend modern scientific and design ideas with 60s aesthetics. His work tends to focus on lighting mixed with strong color compositions and vivid imagery. He has done commercials for Persol Eyewear and Coca-Cola, as well as worked on motion pictures like Paranorman, Mr. Peabody and Sherman, Her, and the TV special revival of the Powerpuff Girls that came out last year.

His work tends to be geometric and vector-like with very straight lines contrasting precise curves. My personal favorite parts of his work are his color schemes and the way he uses lighting to create the atmosphere in his images.
