Toshihiro Egawa is one of the artists we have been lucky enough to work with for CVLT Nation One, our t-shirt collection releasing next week. From the minute we laid eyes on his devastating works, we knew he had to be one of our artists. He is an extremely talented ink artist, but combines his drawing skills with his amazing CG skills to create art that eats your brain. You can feel the warm blood and guts splatter across your face, you can taste the bile spewing from his monsters, you double over when the thorns drive themselves into your flesh. Egawa’s artwork is an experience, and it is no wonder that he is well known in the metal artist community around the world. From Osaka, he is commanding the attention of the world with his apocalyptic visions of death. If you are looking for bloody gory serial-killer massacres, Toshi is your guy. He is best known for his work for Brutal Death Metal, Deathcore and Metalcore bands, but he is also capable of a delicate beauty and ethereal visions of his subjects. He uses natural imagery in a complex way – creating intricately intertwined branches, stems, roots and vines that will either impale your eyeballs or wind themselves around your soul. After the jump, check out a selection of some of his more brutal and more beautiful artwork…
