I thought cubism was drawing one object, but from mutliple angles/sides in the same space? Like drawing a bunch of bottles, then turning then 90� and drawing them again (over the ones you just did).

Don't know his name, but it's definitely a boxer.

I was just adding my 2 cents without really knowing what I was talking about

I would say its just Vector art.

Some things make it look like it is intending to be "pixelated" or pixel based, but a lot of parts break that rule.

lol at Bluesky

My first thought was vector too.. however, this seems like just a simple 2D animation made in a simple graphics app. Aren't vectors a fancy type of tracing from Photoshop?

Vectors are mathematical curves or lines which define the shape of something when then has a fill and stroke usually. Although photoshop does handle vectors it converts the vectors into a bitmap which is just a bunch of pixels. Vectors can also be resized w/o loss of quality while photoshop images cannot.

It looks like that gif definitely uses vector graphics. I could not tell you what kind of artistic style it is however it does remind me of somatic...
