On Pause, a personal illustration project by Vicki Ling.

Vicki Ling is a visual artist and freelance illustrator who currently lives and works in Chicago, IL. With an eye for detail and her strong fictional imagery, she has the ability to convey certain emotions through her artworks.

In her recent project ‘On Pause’, Vicki Ling masterfully explores the threshold between stillness and inertia. Consisting of five illustrations, the series is capturing the moment between the beginning and the end. Vicki Ling has created these artworks during the stay-at-home order in the era of the global pandemic of COVID-19.

Vicki Ling says: “Since the world was paused, many habitual routines and plans in life have been affected or suspended. However, the energy still accumulates to a certain extent and provides a perspective to withdraw from inertial thinking. It also offers a possibility to appreciate the unusual beauty in the forced state of stillness.”
