Whether it be landscapes of the world’s biggest cities (including our very own Hong Kong) or portraits of history’s most beloved icons, Marcos Marin’s work always jumps off the walls. In a style reminiscent of “op art Godfather” Victor Vasarely, Martin uses perspectives, lines and colours to bring his paintings and sculptures to life.
