I'm not a player I just crush a lot - on Fucci

This week, my #MCM goes out to contemporary illustrator & Canadian- Finnish born artist, Fucci. He hails from "The 6", like another creative genius we all know. From my personal experience, Toronto makes some pretty rad artists and produces some incredibly authentic and dope people. I've never met a Canadian I didn't like and Fucci falls in line with the rest of whom I love.

What makes him worth taking 30 minutes out of my day to write about?

Because SEXUALITY.

Because BRIGHT COLORS.

And because he is UNAPOLOGETIC.

Some of my favorite qualities in an any artist or man.  And for some reason, his aesthetic is reminiscent of my 1 true love - Keith Haring. 

Fucci is a good example of how passion + pursuit = success. He started drawing mainly because he was totally uninspired from being a designer for so long. We've all had those career slumps where eventually, we come right back home to our true artistic expression.... (I just went through this myself) 

Most of my favorite works by Fucci are centered around the face-less bodacious female form with perfectly paired pungent palettes. His work has a slight sense of voyuerism, which obviously my curiosity can't ignore. Plus, I feel like I can relate to the females he draws into his art, like he's actually drawing me. It's pretty cool. There is nothing like erotic minimalism.... that only suggests whatever the observer wants to create in their own mind... A slight sexual artistic tension. Don't look too long it might consume you.

My dream would be to see his work curated in a gallery that only showcases his art on white marble. The mix of the two elements would be everythingggg.

 Everytime I scroll through my feed and I see Fucci's work my eyes automatically expand by 10%. It must be true love. Especially since we are giving each other mutual likes <3

Feast your eyes on his  Instagram  - You will be scrolling for a cool minute.
