From Architecture to Artificial Intelligence: Ray Oranges’ Editorial Update

Ray Oranges’ latest editorial artworks brilliantly demonstrate the elegant versatility of his visual language. Approaching diverse subjects from the worlds of design, architecture and technology, Ray illustrates even the most abstract concepts with clarity and an innate sense of colour and composition.

For ETH Zurich and their Globe Magazine, Ray tackled the complex subject of Artificial Intelligence. Tasked to illustrate the cover, opening spread and spot illustrations for the main feature, Ray created a multi-layered language that perfectly captured the intricacies and moral dilemmas of the new technology. Meanwhile, for W&G Magazine he explored in a series of illustrations the concept of Heimat, including the very current nuance of “social cocooning”.

Ray’s love for architecture and design is well documented, and his second cover for American luxury-lifestyle magazine Robb Report pays homage to their 2020 Design Issue with beautifully evocative artwork, inspired by the destructured architecture in the time of Covid.

Ray also continued his collaboration with Monocle UK on a series of artworks about innovation for Expo 2020 Dubai and participated to
The Milaneser project, a fictional magazine along the lines of the Parisianer, with a stunning artwork of Milan’s iconic Triennale Museum created with iPad Procreate.
