Miseryweeds is the graphic work of self taught artist Jimsin Vogel, based in Aberdeen, Scotland. After working for years with alternative cabarets, fetish clubs, burlesque shows, gothic designers, roller derby events, as well as a host of strange and unusual club nights, Jimsin has been inspired by these curious sideshows to create a unique and distinctive style.

 

Lost worlds, perfectly realised

Taking influence from sources as eclectic as Weimar expressionist cinema and totalitarian propaganda posters, Jimsin conjours evocative worlds of smoke and mirrors occupied by vague, decadent and frequently forlorn creatures. Whether grounded in the familiar or cast adrift in haunted mysterious worlds, Jimsin infuses his signature characters with a distant fragile charm.
