Blazing sunsets, fuschia skylines, and bubblegum pink clouds: welcome to the digitally rendered world of Danner Orozco. Orozco is a visual artist from Colombia who puts his anachronistic, futuristic stamp on everything from collages, to cover art, and even NFTs.

Orozco’s work ranges from surrealist collages to dreamy landscapes. Orozco’s palette is dominated by neon blues, pinks, and purples, which blend together to produce the unique effect of a photographic negative that’s been updated for the digital future—a stylistic flourish borne out of his admiration for old-school film photography.

Inspired by the cosmos, Orozco uses his wild imagination to dream up (and then render) his strange and exhilarating signature scenes. The sun and the moon are recurring motifs—oftentimes focal points, stretching beyond their natural scale, and demanding the viewer’s attention. Simply put, Orozco’s work is out of this world.

Meet digital artist, Danner Orozco.

What is the first creative project you remember? 

The first creative project I remember working on was a photography project. As I gained more experience in this medium, I began my “Yagedan” project which, in the beginning, might have best been described as a spatial and nostalgic collage.

Describe your aesthetic in three words. 

Aesthetics, color, stimulation.

What was the most fulfilling collaboration you’ve worked on?

I’ve enjoyed collaborating with art companies that want to license a certain number of copies of my work. What I like about these relationships is that the response to payment and advertising is instant.

What’s one creative project that taught you something fundamental about yourself?

More than just a project, but rather a process that has taught (and continues to teach) me about myself is the empirical search for inspiration drawn from the color palettes of film photography. I think this process is fundamental to my work, and it’s a process that I always approach with love.

Do you think creativity is something you’re born with, or something you’re taught?

I believe that all human beings are creative, but I also believe that creativity is a skill that must be honed over time. No one is born [having learned creativity already].

What’s the last dream you had?

In the last dream I had I traveled all over the world showing my works and meeting with other artists, with whom I even formed musical projects.

One hundred years from now, what do you hope people write about your work?

I hope that people write something pure from the bottom of their hearts and that they continue to keep my work alive for many centuries or millennia to come.
