Pascal Burgers (September 2000) is a writer and interdisciplinary artist with a background in the field of graphic design. His work can be described as autonomous and poetic, blending visual storytelling with diverse artistic mediums (such as: print, video and writing) to create compelling and non-linear narratives.
In the present, Pascal is writing and sculpting new creatures and landscapes through magical realism, philosophy and fantasy. While graphic design provided him with a foundation in visual communication, writing allows him to explore more intricate narratives and convey stories in a more nuanced way. Topics he is currently exploring are queerplatonic relationships, worlds where autumn never ends, and trees who feel lonely in society, among other things.
