Zhang Liang (Ray), Main Chick, Valley Cruise, 2015, ed. 100


Inspired by hip-hop icons and female pop stars, Ray is an illustrator who divides his time between Bejing and London. An avid collector of comics he sees his work as bringing together the two worlds of hip-hop and comics stating "Hip-hop and comic books might appear to be completely different genres, but they actually have a lot in common. For example, comics books often feature a main character with superpowers who struggles against a challenge. It's similar to the struggle of rappers, who will share their energy, motivation, and inspiration with the masses in their pursuit of greatness." Whatever is happening, Ray has charted a unique style and this accordion is a perfect showcase for his sexy work.

5 pages double-sided, each 8" x 5.5" and when opened 2ft 3.5".
