"All Nightmare Long" by Travis Louie

This unsettling family portrait by Travis Louie is inspired by the song "All Nightmare Long."

Louie curates an imaginary realm inhabited by mythical beings, strange animals, and human oddities. His work incorporates themes of remembrance and identity while also slipping in a veiled commentary on racism and the immigrant experience. His advice to young artists is to "make use of your time wisely. Don't forget where you came from. Be honest with yourself about what you are doing and how it connects to your life."
