Concept
Process: This was my first assignment for The New Yorker and is a favorite. I was emailed a draft of the story and asked to draw up concepts. The winner of which can be seen above.
I created final image in four steps:
- Photograph base image.
- Print base image.
- Layer print with filth and place on scanner bed.
- Scan, clean up, voila.
The base image was taken of my best friend’s hands in her bathroom (thanks, Morgan <3). Both she and bathroom were pre-approved by The New Yorker’s Fact Check team to ensure accuracy with the story (yes, even fiction is fact-checked).
