About Money Talks Illustrationsserie
Money Talks er en serie af illustrationer, der kommenterer på korruption inden for embedsvæsenet. Serien skildrer hundredvis af spøgelser, der repræsenterer skjult grådighed, uudtalte regler og jagten på berømmelse og rigdom. Mørke og uhyggelige billeder stilles op imod embedsmændenes positive offentlige image. Hvert print måler 297 gange 420 millimeter og blev fremstillet med Adobe Photoshop og Illustrator. Illustrationerne opfordrer til en ærlig regering, flid og retfærdighed, samtidig med at de tilbyder beskueren en kunstnerisk oplevelse.

- Unique Properties
- The officialdom is a pool of deep water, dirty, chaotic and muddy, just like hundreds of ghosts that haunt at night. They are being an official, not seeking benefits for the people, but pursuing fame and fortune. This is a bad social atmosphere. There are unspoken rules everywhere. The ugly state of pursuit of these rights is the source of depraved social psychology. Therefore, the design team think that it is the best to use hundreds of ghosts to embody these twisted and terrifying situation.

The series of works are hideous, showing the darkness behind the positive image of officialdom via images of hundreds of ghosts. The design team wanted to tell the officials that they should make every effort to govern, act honestly, be diligent for the people, and uphold justice. The design team hope that people get spiritual encouragement, ideological enlightenment and even spurs on words and deeds while providing people with artistic enjoyment, . This is the desire for honest and justice for modern officialdom in this series.
- Inspiration

Based on these and collected data, the design team sort out the general direction through investigation and propose myself.
