Known for envisioning elaborate hypothetical cities, painter Michael Kerbow's latest will resonate with anyone who just trekked home from the holidays: a dystopian traffic jam. Fueled by a non-travel-related existential crisis, Nine Inch Nails, and whiskey, Kerbow's Gridlock captures both the frustration of a failed relationship, and the frustration of a bottleneck on the I-95.A photo posted by Michael Kerbow (@michaelkerbow) on Nov 27, 2015 at 8:54am PST
