Final year project
'Control the Virus' and 'Pass the Baton'
Pass the Baton - The Wrestler
'Pass the Baton' is a project imagining an Athlete Mental Health Awareness campaign endorsed by Sport England. This illustration was inspired by Kurt Angle, a retired professional wrestler who has been open about his experience with drug addiction.
Pass the Baton - The Runner
This illustration was inspired by retired middle-distance runner Dame Kelly Holmes and her battle with depression, anxiety and self-harm.
Control the Virus - Greed
'Control the Virus' is a project which draws parallels between the Seven Deadly Sins and the resultant behaviours of Covid-19. The final illustrations use symbols and colours traditionally associated with these sins to expose undesirable reactions to the pandemic. This illustration is a response to the monopolies owned by large pharmaceutical companies who reaped enormous profits by selling their vaccines at high prices to rich countries, leaving millions unprotected.
Control the Virus - Gluttony
Control the Virus - Wrath
Control the Virus - Sloth
