The Patchwork Series by Maxime Manga

Maxime Manga is a Cameroonian artist whose digital art speaks about the messy beauty of life. Maxime focuses on portraiture, but each one is bursting with lines and colours that almost overpower his subjects’ features - it’s all a beautiful mess.

His Patchwork series in particular, encompasses his general message - that life and people are complicated. One moment is joyful, another is sorrowful, yet another is wrought with mistakes but another is overflowing with bravery. Like the colourful patchwork jacket each subject wears, we as individuals are defined by complex and tangled experiences - all of which we should feel fully and own completely.
