작품 상세

Shafiq's imaginative composition presents a skinless creature portrayed with refined line work and a rhythmic repetition of skeletal patterns, accompanied with a blue wave rendered in a traditional Japanese style. Trapped Parasite is skilfully rendered, with bold lines, featuring intricate details and vivid imagery, characteristic of the style of woodblock printing. His observations on social issues are skilfully articulated through an assortment of forms.
