I created this series of illustrations to tell the story of Tyrus Wong’s life, inspired by the idea of engawa — the space between inside and outside. Each calm, gentle scene, marked by a touch of red, captures key moments from his journey — from his migration to the U.S. as a young boy to his groundbreaking work in Hollywood.
