The Boys of Summer

November 2, 2017 2017年11月2日

Yuzhou Feigou (whose moniker roughly translates to “A Worthless Cosmic Dog”) is studying visual communication design at the China Academy of Art. Despite declaring to us, “I’m a conservative guy,” his newest illustrations boldly explore themes of homoerotic desire and fantasy. Featuring a cast of young male characters flaunting their luscious bodies, the lazy scenes and bright colors create a sense carefree summer days. Feigou’s simple, yet distinct, style hasn’t gone unnoticed. Recently, VOGUE Me tapped him to create artwork for the magazine’s October issue. Despite this commission, Feigou told us he isn’t interested in becoming a professional illustrator. Even though drawing is just a “passion” project for him, he assured us with a smirk: “As long as I have that lust within me, I’ll keep drawing.”


宇宙废狗,一个在中国美院念视觉传达的学生。尽管他宣称:“我是个保守的人!”但他的插图却不然。他最新的插图主题大胆地探索同性恋的欲望和幻想:以一群年轻的男性为主角,展现他们丰美的身材。其中慵懒的场景、明快的色调,营造出无忧无虑的夏日风情。他简单、透彻又独特的风格不会被忽视,今年的《VOGUE Me》十月刊就把他的作品收入了内页。尽管这样,废狗还是表示他对成为职业插画师没有太大兴趣,绘画对他来说只是一个“激情”项目。“只要还有情欲的话,我就会一直画下去。”
