His art played a crucial role in the visual identity of the movement, using bold imagery and powerful messages to communicate themes of social justice and empowerment.

Observations

Across all four panels, the style uses bold graphic portraiture with heavy black ink contours, dense hatching, and simplified flat color blocks on visibly distressed paper. Saturated red, teal, yellow, blue, and cream create high contrast, while repeated poster-like framing, targets, rays, and patterned garments reinforce a retro screenprint character.
