There's a rather interesting vibe to the work of Hungarian designer
Fanny Papay. It's clearly pulling from 80's reference points - floppy disks, bold color palettes and that bizarre catalog style flatness to the photoshoots - but doesn't feel contrived, it feels
inspired by. There's certainly a unique voice being expressed here but, as someone that grew up in that decade, many of the visual cues here feel heavily familiar.
It's an impressive and amusing body of work with
burning roses,
cantaloupe album covers and
shredded faces as just the tip of the iceberg. Dive into the
portfolio or the
Instagram for the full effect. I find myself rather enjoying the
manual glitching.
