The work of Brazillian street artist, MEDO, has recently shifted from dark, often geometrical human-like figures to the anatomically correct abstraction.  The subject of his work comprises “cathedrals, monasteries, sacred art and the horror of the inevitable.”

His almost sacred figures stood amidst the crumbled locations like Incoherent saints with void as eyes staring at the skies for impossible answers.
There is a Dreary quality in their faces and gestures but also a glimpse of compassion and maybe true hope.

I love the selection of anatomical elements he places together.  They have a silliness and sense of desperation to them.
