The Darker Side of Society — Are We Really Like This?

There’s incredible power in expressing ideas through art, whether a person is trying to highlight humanities greatest strengths, or our deepest lows.

This collection of paintings by Spanish artist Luis Quiles (aka Gunsmithcat) covers the latter. This artwork definitely doesn’t portray humanity in a very good light. The imagery is dark, borderline “inappropriate,” and covers a wide range of topics most people would probably rather not deal with.

If you ask me, it’s pretty powerful artwork, but I’ll let you be the judge.

They’re Pretty Grim…

As I said, this collection is pretty grim. Though it doesn’t contain any nudity, you may not want to view it if you’re at work or spending time with the kids.

Love it or hate it, I think we can both agree that Luis’ work is quite unique. If you’re interested in seeing more of his artwork, and don’t worry… there’s no shortage, then you can head over to his DeviantArt page and take a look around. The same disclaimer applies to everything you see there.
