<b>ISHISHI - Surrealist Cityscape with Sailing Ship, Flying Saucer and Gears - Blue Ballpoint Pen on Paper, 2026</b><br>
Signed contemporary drawing on paper. Surrealist architectural cityscape with diverse fantasy elements. Blue ballpoint pen. Unframed.<br><br>
<b>Description</b><br>
The most eclectic and inventive of the ISHISHI ballpoint works. This densely populated composition takes the architectural cityscape formula and enriches it with a remarkable collection of disparate objects: a sailing ship sits nestled among rooftops, a flying saucer hovers at lower left, mechanical gears and cogs are integrated into the architecture, flowers and plants grow from rooftops, chess pawn-like forms stand among the buildings, and ornamental Gothic pointed arches with tassel details frame the lower right. Spiral and conical towers, winding pathways, bottle-shaped structures and clouds complete the fantastical inventory.<br><br>
Where some of the ISHISHI works read as pure architectural exercises, this piece is playful and genuinely surrealist - a dreamscape that rewards close inspection. Every viewing reveals another unexpected element. In good condition with minor handling marks. Signed "ISHISHI" at lower right. Verso: "© 2026".<br><br>
