The artist refers to these works as “molecule maps” and cites emotive figurative painters Zhang Dali, Francis Bacon, and Jenny Saville as inspirations. The artist employs various mediums, including painting, silkscreen, and India ink, to create profound portraits commemorating lives lost on perilous journeys and serving to make their stories visible.
