Illustrations by My Buemann
Dive into the minimalist universe of Copenhagen based illustrator My Buemann filled with playful and thought provoking characters incapsulating various emotions. “I have always been interested in people and often address people’s feelings – rational or irrational – in my work. I use myself as a starting point but a lot of people recognize themselves in my work. I think it’s crucial that we don’t neglect our feelings, but that we dare to acknowledge them, which is part of being alive. I hope that my drawings can be used as a tool which for a moment, makes us feel ourselves.” -My Buemann See some selected works below:
