“Infusing my past and present styles, this show is a transition from my big-eyed human figures to depictions of alien characters,” Ana Bagayan said of her new show, Futurealism opening at La Luz de Jesus. “I started my illustration and fine art career painting emotional big-eyed children. Years later, when I came across the alien abduction phenomenon, I noticed an uncanny resemblance between my characters and the human-alien hybrid children.A simple thematic change in my artwork transported us into alien worlds with big-eyed cosmic children. This style of art has become known as Futurealism.”
