Designing in the Glitch, Collages by Anton Elfilter

An abstract image featuring a close-up of electronic components on the left side and a gradient of colors with a bright, converging beam effect on the right side.
An artistic collage featuring a white flower overlaid on technical drawings and circuit board designs.

Anton Elfilter’s posters feel like they’re mid-mutation. Images collide, fracture, and somehow resolve into something cohesive.

Blending collage, digital tools, and AI, he builds dense, experimental compositions filled with texture, distortion, and surreal fragments. The work feels both archival and futuristic, like a design language from an alternate timeline.

Abstract composition featuring a grid pattern with a mix of textures and colors, including earth tones, blues, and reds.

There’s tension throughout. Classic layout instincts hold things together, while generative elements push them off balance. AI isn’t the author here, it’s a disruptor.

Look closer and the noise sharpens. Typography flickers in and out. Colors vibrate. What feels chaotic is tightly controlled.

In a sea of overly clean AI art, this work stands out by staying rough, strange, and unresolved.
