He started a series called the "Stolen Series" in which he colors in the faces of those who have been victims of police brutality for the amount of minutes that equal the age they were killed at.
This picture is of TonyMcDade who was 38 years old when he was killed. Which means this picture was colored in for 38 minutes.
