Mox:Live continues to push the boundaries in visual design, developing surreal, abstract and futuristic creations that draw inspiration from a spectrum of media. Inspired by revered artists such as David Lachapelle, Michael Goundry, Ridley Scott, Quay Brothers, Frank O’Gary and Frank Ghery, as well a passion for old art cinema, Mox:Live is a pallet of creativity. His production constantly switches between analogue and digital techniques, while fuelling a desire to find an artistic balance between old beauty and exciting modernity.
