Issue 60: Fill in the Blank

Illuminated Life

Collages about growing up.

Alex Hanson 08/29/2016
  • These illustrations feature black and white photos of me between the ages of six and 20. Each collage alludes to my emotional state and perception of myself at that stage in my life. The illustrations become more detailed as I develop into an almost-adult person with a more complex perception of myself.
