Vince Fraser

"My work is based around Afro-surrealism as opposed to Afrofuturism. Afro-surrealism is more about the present. It’s looking at how you can bring things from the past, put them in the present and highlight them in a surreal way." 

  1. Vince Fraser is a London-based digital artist of Jamaican heritage known for his captivating work that merges Afro-surrealism, vibrant cultural references, and surreal aesthetics. 


  2. Renowned for his meticulous attention to detail and playful, experimental style, Vince bridges the realms of fantasy and reality to craft bold, powerful depictions of the African diaspora. His work often challenges stereotypes by presenting images of Black culture through a surreal lens, bringing forward narratives that celebrate diversity and empowerment.


  3. With over two decades of experience as a digital illustrator in the creative industry, Vince has seamlessly transitioned into visual arts. His work, a blend of film, motion, and illustration, reflects an evolving skill set that Vince defines as a New Breed of Artist in the Digital Age.


  4. Over the years, Fraser’s work has gained widespread recognition, leading to collaborations with iconic artists, including Erykah Badu, Black Coffee, and Outkast.


  5. In 2021, Fraser teamed up with Artechouse for an audiovisual exhibition, narrated by the poet Ursula Rucker, that celebrates the Black experience. The show, which opened in Miami and has since travelled to New York, Washington DC, Las Vegan and Stockholm features an immersive room and an interactive area with augmented-reality technology
