Children of Eternal Misfortune
A series of work using a colouring book aesthetic. My original idea stemmed out of considering the nursery rhyme of Jack and Jill as a Sisyphean parable; its girl and boy protagonists forever trapped in the retelling of their downfall. I re envisioned the tale as a preoccupation or obsession with Wish fulfilment.
