Digital Artist Charles Lopez Finds Romance in Silence, Storms and Landscapes That Don’t Care About Us
Charles Lopez creates cinematic images of a lone silhouette in vast, haunting landscapes. His work is about solitude, and he presents it as beautiful rather than sad.
His scenes read like stills from a film that doesn’t exist. A plane sits abandoned in a dark field. The Eiffel Tower sinks into the sea, the Colosseum floats in fog, and the Empire State Building glows red through the trees. One figure moves through all of these worlds, and every one of them is lost and beautiful.
The landscapes are huge and indifferent. He shows the pyramids at dusk, a dark field under a storm, a mountain burning red at the edge of the world, and a single tree bent by the wind. The figure is tiny against all of it, and the silence feels romantic. His own line is that some people don’t need to be found, they just need a bigger place to disappear.
