Ruben Ireland creates illustrations defined by an inherent sense of strength. His portraits feature sharp jaw-lines and a graphic execution where bold colors demand immediate attention. Within his work, figures exist in a state of séance-like peace, staring out with a stoic resolve that invites the viewer into a darkened reality. His imagery explores the silent acknowledgement between humans and beasts. From girls tending to birds with covered eyes to half-man, half-ram hybrids, these subjects inhabit a world of dark fairy-tales. There is no room for worry here, only an acceptance of the unspoken understanding shared between the figures, the animals, and the viewer.
