On the eve of Bowie’s passing, Jesse V1TAL completed this tribute to the super star and his lifelong quest to be superhuman.
The David Bowie vs Metropolis mashup release was initially scheduled to coincide with the icon’s 69th birthday, on January 8th. His music, art and style had made a marked impression on so many lives, including those at V1TAL World Creative. Bowie was an exciting figure for Jesse to illustrate, one that brought on bouts of nostalgia, bringing forward childhood memories riddled with his music.
In this piece, as in his life, he was more than human…and as such, Bowie’s artistry will live on infinitely.
