We recently teamed up with Neverglad Art because we appreciated their raw depiction of emotion in their artwork. Each design has a message and a story that draws us in to see more. The complexion and conception of each piece of artwork convey a brief glimpse into the mind of Dickri. We asked Neverglad to tell us a little about themselves, and here is what they had to say.  "My name is Dickri Fauzy (Neverglad). I am a graphic designer and illustrator, being a freelance graphic designer made me want to explore kinds of visuals including art style, I love...

We at Illusions have developed The Age of Artistry Initiative, usually referred to as the AAI. This initiative is an ongoing effort to showcase the work of well-established artists as well as underground artists who continue to inspire our population. Our artists continually push the boundaries of their craft. They help provide our culture with context and perspective. The history of others has the potential to catalyze the story of others.

4D in Design Whilst looking into the fourth dimension, it may secrete a confusing façade at first, but mostly refers to design and media that changes with time.

Having these titles requires a brand to be spawned independently without the backing of an external variable. Becoming a streetwear brand means that you don't belong to any fashion house.

No investors, no partners, the product is pure and not dictated to a traditional fashion calendar. Products are entirely dictated upon the intrinsic perspective and capabilities of the respective designer....

In the ancient Vedic era, Rishis referred to illusions as Maya, which also translates to, "that which is not." In some regard, this is accurate. Just like when you are in a dream state, that dream never truly existed. Illusions occur when you superimpose those illusory ideas onto something else to forge an ulterior reality from what is truly existent. Ultimately, anything we accumulate through sensory experience or imagination isn't real in a true sense. Humans tend to identify with what we are not. We must go through the trials and tribulations of remembering and recognizing who we really are to...
