Manzel Bowman's Mythical Art

American artist, Manzel Bowman, creates the most futuristic pieces you will ever see with his digital art. His theme is clear and consistent - showcasing Africans and African culture as bigger than life, bigger than the planet or even the universe! Bowman breaks all current expectations for Africa and represents them (us) as deities, overseers, futuristic and mythical - all at once.

I am trying to bring about a correction to the misrepresentation of my people," Bowman tells us via email, "and the best way I can do that is by creating pieces and scenes daily to counter America's normative. I just want to see black people flourish the way they are supposed to! ~ Bowman for Okay Africa

If you ever wanted to imagine how African culture can exist in symbiosis with technology and humanity’s exploration of the stars, just look at a Bowman piece. Check some out below:
