Monochrome Dreams: Black & White Illustrations by Sulir

Sulir is an independent illustrator from the Philippines who creates expressive artworks in black and white. His work often centers around people and nature, coming alive with dreamlike, atmospheric scenes that seem to leap out of a storybook.

Working with delicate forms and stark contrasts, he builds narratives that are vivid and open to interpretation. The way he balances darkness and light feels intentional, drawing your eye to the most important elements of his work while also leaving room for your imagination to wander.

“I firmly believe that art is a bridge for communication, capable of inspiring a love for life and a pursuit of beauty. I hope that through my artwork, I can touch the souls of the viewers, enabling them to feel the emotions and stories I aim to convey.”
