'Being humble and wise is knowing not being wise.'

Linus

A young Polish (?) artist calling himself "lucjan_".

Professionally drawn dark, smudgy sketches are often superimposed with strikingly demarcated, clean, abstract splotches of glaring colour. They seem to be colour-coded references to the emotions trailing just "outside" whatever event he's illustrating. Simple, but powerful.

Sometimes he's a bit too bitter for my tastes (hard to avoid with artworks concerned with depression, fear, resentment etc.), but I'd recommend his galleries as well worth your time. :)

The absolutely stunning work of Nnenna Okore (which I'll get to see in person come next February):

"I was thinking through the illegibility of Black patients' pain in the healthcare system. Black patients are overwhelmingly denied adequate pain management. Half of medical students believe that Black people feel less pain than white people."

That sounds like it should be included in medical textbooks. The image would stick in students' minds.

Thanks!
Henk,

I just started checking out this thread.  You make some very interesting artwork.  :)  What medium do you work with?  Is it all digital or??
