Rainbow aliens and distorted Simpsons characters are commonplace in the imaginative worlds of 18-year-old Swedish artist Jens Dåversjö, a.k.a. Burdco. While his work looks at home on a t-shirt or a pin, it’s perhaps most appealing on paper, where you can dive right into the innate trippiness of his ideas. You can see the evolution of Burdco’s priestly sadboys, mysterious spaceboys, and skeletal skullboys, each decked out in their own kind of color spectrum, across his Instagram feed. He taps into fan favorites like the characters of Adventure Time, and integrates them into his own work in a way that reads as compelling, rather than simple fan art. I actually want to know what their drug-fueled adventures through Burdco’s mind would be like.
Enjoy some of our favorite examples of Burdco’s work in the Instagrams below.
