Judges' comments

The works of btzz are like children's dreams cut out of colored paper. Here you can get into the orbit of a lemon planet or fly over the city on a huge white bird. Nothing is impossible here. This is a big journey of a little rabbit in search of happiness... I really like the artist's style. It is like looking at the cutout collage, fragments of which are not yet completed. One careless movement, and the whole composition changes completely. This style evokes a feeling of freedom and values in every moment.

Soft and poetic vibe. I like the textured brushes and whimsical colors—they build a dreamy mood. But overall, the compositions feel a bit flat and visually noisy. The scattered elements lack focus, and the connection between images leans too much on color. Maybe explore more variation in composition or add narrative threads to make the series more engaging.

Max Liu

The bright colors, playful character designs, and varied compositions make the work lively and engaging. The artist skillfully uses simple geometric shapes to depict each object, while adding curves and patterns to enrich the overall composition.

btzz's illustrations are a striking exploration of graphic minimalism. Through the clever use of negative space, the artist constructs form and narrative in a way that feels both subtle and deliberate. The white areas aren't passive background — they actively shape figures and movement, creating tension between absence and presence. At the same time, the spatial construction is carefully considered: perspective shifts, overlapping elements, and rhythmic composition invite the viewer to look closer and read between the lines.

This group of works features highly generalised geometric forms, bright colours and rhythmic movements in a childlike style. When looking at them, it is as if the ears are ringing with the soft, joyful children's songs you once hummed to your toys during playtime, during a childhood afternoon with no homework to do.
