John Karborn X Mobstr >
Self-taught English artist, John Karborn has a distinct style that’s a fine-arts version of industrial chic, recalling the politically charged realism of the Ashcan School, but tweaked and upgraded for the digital age. Mobstr doesn’t see himself as a typographer or an artist. Just simply as a guy who thinks too much. He is an antagonist. He questions everything. He disassembles what is around him and tries to twist is, undermine it, subvert it.
