Colorful, invasive, slimy … With his little monsters, Andrew Rae envisions the smartphone as a portal between the virtual and the real, from which unknown life forms escape. To create his series entitled «Phone Buddies», the London-based illustrator combined his talent with that of photographer Ruskin Kyle in order to anchor his creations in reality. The latter immortalized passers-by in the streets of London who kept their eyes glued to the screen of their smartphone, before Andrew Rae added his monsters to the images. Pop and colorful, their collaboration invites us to reflect on the link we have with our screens.
