The eternal dream of a person to fly across the sky like a bird is expressed differently for everyone. Someone just dreams, someone is engaged in parachuting, someone builds planes and rockets, and someone sublimates this passion of theirs in creativity. Russian artist Alexey Andreev belongs to the latter.
Alexey Andreev works as an illustrator. Moreover, a fairly broad profile. For example, we can mention one of his series of works - the visual concept of the cartoon "Kin-dza-dza".
Of course, a huge part of this artist's work is fiction. Moreover, both classical cosmo operas and post-apocalyptic ones. It is precisely in the post-apocalyptic genre that many of his works are made. Including those that we are considering in this material.
Alexey Andreev in many of his illustrations reveals the theme of overcoming the earth's gravity. In them we see an unusual, phantasmagoric world in which quite ordinary people live. But they live according to rather unusual physical laws.
A flying bus, a raft levitating over the water, some kind of aerial islands and platforms, overhead buildings. This is what you can often see in the paintings of Alexei Andreev. So he embodies in creativity the eternal dream of all Mankind about flying.
