I'm Suleiman Gwadah, aka Pacmartian, a self-taught artist/illustrator who’s a little obsessed with sci-fi, fantasy and horror, and I love to express that through afrofuturistic art.

In my illustrations, I attempt to combine elements of genre entertainment like sci-fi, fantasy and horror with African folklore and pop culture. My art style is heavily influenced by elements of pop art, atom punk, cyberpunk and graphic novels from the 70s and 80s.

I love to use bold colours and ink to create images that remind me of the weird and wonderful worlds created by some of my favorite writers and artists from past and present.

Jadwiga is the city. Her body dissolves in the walls, her consciousness seeps into the cracks, her memory merges with the memories of buildings.
Jadwiga a város. Teste felszívódik a falakban, tudata behálózza a repedéseket, emlékezete összekeveredik az épületek emlékezetével.
Aqui jaz a rainha, gigante e imóvel, cada um de seus seis braços caídos e abertos, curvados, tomados de leves espasmos, como se esquecesse de que não estava mais viva.

I said sky/ and with a stainless-steel plate covered/ the rotis going stale 
मैंने कहा आकाश/ और स्टेनलेस स्टील की थाली से ढक दिया/ बासी पड़ रही रोटियों को

Here lies the queen, giant and still, each of her six arms sprawled, open, curved, twitching like she forgot she no longer breathed.
