Jun Oson - Not Alone

Giving Volume to Vector Art
The challenge with Jun Oson’s work is translating his iconic, flat graphic style into 3D space without losing its charm. I developed this digital sculpture along side Jun to feel like a 'living illustration' by carefully modeling the curves and volumes to catch the light softly, preserving the clean, pop-art aesthetic of his original 2D sketches while giving it the weight and presence of a physical object.
