VANCOUVER-BASED ARTIST, ILLUSTRATOR, AND DESIGNER

Known for colourful abstract paintings and bubbly characters, Mark Atomos Pilon exhibits internationally and has been illustrating, painting, and designing for more than three decades. His work blends retro cool with a mid-century modern edge.

A FORWARD LOOK, A GLANCE BACK

The past few years have seen some major changes in the direction of Mark's work with a focus on colour blocks and grids. The direction is crisp, clean, and in the geometric abstraction style. The traditional bright-eyed 'Atomos' characters of the past will not be forgotten and are being developed parallel to this new work.
