Having worked in the film and television industry, you can clearly see that Chris is a big fan of classic horror. You can see in the two works, “HAREM SCAREM” inspired by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres painting “La Grande Odalisque” and the third painting “DEATH OF GILLMAN” inspired by Jacques-Louis David’s “Death of Marat” painting, that he is also knowledgeable about art history.
