    She/Her
  • Why did you create this work?
    My grandmother is a person trapped in time, traveling through her broken memories, cycling through the same things every day. I can't reach her world, it's like I'm shouting into the void, “Hello? Are you there?” I aim to depict the lives of individuals with Alzheimer's through this project, bringing attention to this community.
  • How were your illustrations used?
    This was a course project I did in Kingston University.
  • What materials and techniques did you use?
    The artwork is made of relief printings. I made a lot of monoprints and textures and then collaged these images into one large image. After scanning this image I added portraits and blue details on procreate.

    Un-commissioned
