The piece challenges perception with its blend of contradictory perspectives, where shapes suggest both interior and exterior spaces. The juxtaposition of bright colors in the structures against the somber sky creates a dynamic visual tension, inviting viewers to explore the complexity and depth within the surreal architectural landscape.

Get to Know the Austin Artist:
I’m a designer and illustrator living in Austin, Texas. I studied Studio Art and English at Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. I feel my happiest and most satisfied working on creative projects I’m passionate about, whether it’s cutting out tiny collage details with my x-acto knife, or working in Figma to make intuitive designs.

I love experimenting with color and texture through paste paper collage, and I’m constantly inspired by my favorite children’s book illustrators, Eric Carle, Christian Robinson, and so many more.
