Owen Gent, a talented illustrator based in Bristol, is known for his captivating work that explores themes of psychological struggle and moral dilemmas through the interplay of shadow and scale. Working across analog and digital mediums, Gent’s illustrations are characterized by grainy textures and bold colors that bring his narratives to life.

Many of Gent’s illustrations are commissioned by editorial clients such as The New York Times, Psychologie Heute, and Middlebury Magazine. His work delves into modern anxieties and dilemmas, often depicting ominous beasts or precarious situations, like a row of enormous dominoes on the brink of collapse.

Prints of Gent’s work are available for purchase in his online shop. To stay updated on his latest projects, you can follow him on Behance and Instagram.

Some of Gent’s striking illustrations include “Of Consequence,” featuring a person pushing the first domino in a row, “The Stavros Manuscript” cover art with pages flying away from a red silhouette, and “Tom Lake finds Ann Patchett in a Chekhovian Mood” showcasing cherry blossom trees dropping leaves on a colorful backdrop.

Other notable pieces by Gent include “On Thin Ice,” depicting lines ascending and descending across an iceberg with a ship nearby, “Fibromyalgia” showing red lines tied to a red silhouette of a person, and “Near Death Experiences” where a white figure hovers above a larger black silhouette.

In “My Perfectly Hidden Depression,” a tiny person hangs from the pinky finger of a massive thumbs up, while in “The Big Still—The Science of Hope,” a silhouette looks at a screen with a black vortex emerging from it. Lastly, “Be Creative” features a silhouette of a person leaning back at a desk with polka dots in a window.

Gent’s thought-provoking illustrations not only showcase his artistic talent but also invite viewers to ponder the complexities of human emotions and experiences. Each piece tells a unique story, inviting viewers to reflect on their own struggles and triumphs in the face of adversity.
