Shout out to Canadian artist Gary Taxali for his fearless political illustrations that pull no punches. Using a visual language inspired by World War 2 era graphics, his work feels both nostalgic and sharply current. The limited colour palettes, rough textures, and striking symbolism combine to deliver messages that are impossible to ignore.
As a Canadian, these illustrations hit especially close to home. They carry an ominous weight while remaining deceptively simple in form. Taxali proves how powerful illustration can be when concept and style are perfectly aligned. This is work that challenges, provokes, and lingers long after the first glance.
Impressive and provocative in the best possible way. Explore more of his work at https://www.garytaxali.com/
