He’s a very talented graphic designer with a background in advertising and brand development based in Noida, India. He’s also a self-taught visual artists who loves space and is known as Mr.Kalopsia on Instagram. Here he posts incredible artworks that are a seamless blend of reality and fantasy. He’s become quite a social media influencer lately, his Instagram has over 40K followers and it just keeps growing. Today we thought we’d share with you some of his conceptual art that criticizes social media and the impact that it has on society and our lives in general.

1. Eashan captioned this with “Need I say more?”. What do you think he meant by it? Is this a commentary on social media, social habits or the different goals we might have in mind that we don’t communicate well?

2. This is a fun little play on the new emojis that become available. Do we really need them? Should we really be all up in arms about how inclusive the emojis are or should we think about real life inclusivity?

3. This one’s captioned as “social isolation”. Are we way too dependent on other people’s opinions and whether they like us or not? Are we thinking about the right things? There’s a lot of ways you can interpret this.
