Submission Illustration

Soca Panggiring — Selected Works

I am an Indonesian illustrator based in Germany, working across traditional and digital media. My work explores human experience, social issues, identity, and the quiet tensions between people and the world around them. I am drawn to surreal and symbolic imagery, using familiar objects, figures, and environments to express ideas that are often difficult to put into words. I enjoy creating visual narratives that invite viewers to pause, interpret, and find their own meaning. My illustrations often use restrained palettes and contrasting elements to create a sense of unease, curiosity, or emotional depth. Through each piece, I aim to turn an ordinary image into something that carries a second layer beneath the surface.
