Jacob Stack

Jacob Stack
 
While I was brain storming trying to think of new ideas, I ended up doing a small little doodle and immediately thought of this guy, Jacob Stack. He was a art student graduate at LSAD. I saw his work at the LSAD graduate show and really enjoyed them.Many are simple but really effective and others are crammed full of detail! His work mainly explored minimalism. I couldn't help but smile when looking at his work. His tiny characters seem to be own type of animation. The human like figures have very little features and he also some characters are animals, such as polar bears.

Huge amount of detail! Can you find the character?
His pieces have a great sense of space. Every object in his pieces have amazing detail, every minute detail is visible. His attention to detail makes the viewer explore the piece for a long period of time, trying to find small hidden characters. I find this interaction with the viewer really enjoyable and it's almost like a game trying to find those hidden characters entwinted in all the detail.
