BIOGRAPHY

MILO Topra "kerberys"
71495699_2974055015941199_62630217144776

I'm Milo Topra alias kerberys as known across the internet. Studying for my B.F.A. in Kankaanpää School of Fine Arts as we speak. Creating chaos and bringing harmony both at once since September 1996.

First and foremost, I'm what one might address as a quirky character based on my personality and artistic aspirations as well as general vision alike. Greatly inspired by the dark and damned aspects of human mind and the globe we live on, I thrive to illustrate dystopian imagery and macabre moments of terror I imagine would be unsettling for most. One of the elements I've recently been into has been flower gore. There's just something all too fascinating about combining gruesome visuals of death with the subtle fairness of plants.


Granted, I do a lot of works outside of horror themes as well. Generally speaking I would say I'm most influenced by contemporary concept artists, modern realists of all sorts and 19th century impressionists.

To extent, I'm a jack of all trades and always eager to learn new techniques and mediums. Some of them do however work for me better than the others; my favorite traditional mediums must be oils combined with acrylics though watercolors and ink do come as strong second.
