Created for my Senior Capstone as an undergrad, this comic is the beginning of a larger story still in the works. The physical copies of the comics were made to be read from front to back or back to front in any order. This creates two separate but parallel stories that intertwine to tackle themes of identity, morality, and family.
These picturesque scenes are overlayed and mixed with the images of homes I have lived in over the years. The nature scenes were digitally painted and the architecture was pulled from photographs I had taken of my most notable childhood homes.
This sequential art was drawn digitally and showcases moments of my childhood that caused emotional wounds. It took years of self reflection to realize the extent of the hardships I faced as a child, and this work is a testament to the ability to overlook trauma as being "normal."
These rotoscoped animations explore the different aspects of one's identity and the anxiety and unease that comes from being one out of many.
These works showcase some of the best pieces produced throughout my academic career as an undergrad.
