Virut Panchabuse from Bangkok is one of the most trending artists in today’s contemporary art market.

His works feature big-scale and expressive pop-art portraits entirely made in collage technique.

By meticulously assembling thousands of tiny old magazine snippets (mostly taken from fashion and porn magazines to achieve skin colors and textures), layer by layer, the artist creates man-sized, almost hyper-realistic faces full of expression, vividness and light effects.

Featured in prestigious galleries all over the world, often with immediate sold-out, his art has been growing tremendously in value in the last years and it is nowadays hard to get hands on one of his works.
