The figures create the various shaped landscapes inhabited by people. Above and throughout are dark forces such as a virus. The figures were made from a stamp and red ink the artist acquired while in South Korea for the Gwangju Biennial in 1997. People in South Korea used the stamp with their names for signature. The floating ominous oval shapes are in response to Covid.
