Take me there (1/3)

A series of augmented reality illustrations.
Take me there is a series of 3 illustrations exploring the power of storytelling through augmented reality. I want to show the blurred human idea of reality, using elements from architecture and nature to create a window to different, surreal and magical worlds.

This idea has been going around in my head for a while, and when I finally started working on it, Covid hit the world and added another angle to my project: In times of lockdowns, it became some kind of escape for me, dreaming away in magical forests and surreal buildings. The humans in my illustrations are sometimes lost, confused, sometimes dreaming, dancing, or frozen in time.

In this first piece, I've visualized my feelings around isolation. While being somehow trapped in one place, I've also experienced that it gives me space to look at the bigger picture and to slow down.

Tools: Adobe Fresco, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Aero, Procreate.
