40 Illustrations That Are Both Funny and Philosophical Shared by the Artist Online
These comics portray our world from the perspectives of plants, animals, and inanimate objects.
We humans often hold the belief that we rule the world due to our superior ways of thinking and loving. Different creatures in this world may feel they lack such gifts and capacities.
On the other hand, perhaps we can only presume that they don't. Have you ever considered that maybe animals understand more about us and the world we inhabit than we typically believe?
Well, let us introduce you to Erik and his comic project titled "Bonus Context." Erik’s comics portray our world from the perspectives of plants, animals, and inanimate objects.
You may be surprised by how insightful and philosophical these illustrations can be. Erik is a father of three and an artist from Sweden.
According to the artist, he began drawing illustrations long ago, which he suspects many people do! Erik has attempted writing novels and other works but has experienced mixed results for quite some time.
When asked what inspired him to create these comics, Erik replied that he doesn't know precisely, but he finds that birds are entertaining and funny in an inexplicable way. We hope you will find this artist’s illustrations as amusing as we do!

The artist expressed that he always cherishes it when his illustrations spark a conversation. As noted by Dr. Angela Duckworth, a renowned psychologist and author, "Humor can be a powerful tool for building connections and fostering resilience." While the Swedish artist is pleased to know that his comics have initiated dialogues, he strives to avoid constraining a message in anything he creates.
