The illustration of the McCandless Bus was posted on Chen’s website as a portfolio piece for promotion purposes. “The bus gained notoriety in January 1993 when Outside magazine published an article written by Jon Krakauer titled ‘Death of an Innocent’ describing the death of Christopher McCandless, an American hitchhiker who lived in the bus during the summer of 1992 while attempting to survive off the Alaskan wilderness, only to die of starvation four months later.” 8 x 8, digital.
