Unusual art for unusual people
Ufy is a contemporary visual artist who transforms surreal beings into powerful reflections of human emotion.
Their work can be defined by expressive brushwork, vivid colours and atmosphere that prioritises the raw feeling over realism. Ufy seeks to express the essence of emotion into visual form and creates works that can feel haunting, loving, vulnerable and deeply human.
By giving shape to emotions through surreal portraiture, Ufy invites you to connect, reflect, and find recognition in the uncanny.
New collection.
Through minimal brushstrokes and careful use of tone, Ufy transforms restraint into complexity, revealing emotion, personality, and depth in forms that seem deceptively simple.
This collection celebrates the beauty of singular expression, proving that even in one colour, a world of feeling can be conveyed.
One Coloured is a series of watercolour portraits that explores the power of simplicity.
Each painting is created using only a single colour, yet every character emerges as a unique, fully realized being.
— Surreal Sci-Fi Illustration
Client: Annie Chown
Medium: Ink and Japanese watercolours
Year: 2025
Commissioned by sound artist Annie Chown, Eat the Rich is a surreal sci-fi illustration created to visually represent her immersive soundscape across YouTube, SoundCloud, her website, and other platforms.
Set in a distant galaxy, the piece imagines a dystopian restaurant where giant cyborgs feast on the wealthy, merging dark satire with futuristic fantasy. Using ink and Japanese watercolours, I brought this world to life with expressive detail, fluid linework, and vivid contrast, capturing both the grotesque and the beautiful.
