Portrait of Runo B

My work explores the clash and fusion of different cultures, customs, and ethnicity in specific regions, and the backside of urban landscapes, like my own play with interaction of multicultural, which are often ironic and provocative in a dark comedy way expressing social engagement and political perceptions.
