His textured surfaces evoke an eerie, forward-looking aesthetic, reflecting a new age of visual expression. Drawing inspiration from sci-fi narratives that resonate with today’s youth, Ishmael creates dynamic black figures set against vibrant backdrops and ornate textures, symbolizing his deep connection to his native culture.
