"Prism Catboy Prison" (2022)
Digital (Procreate on iPad)
With a rather nonsensical name "Prism Catboy Prison" is a collaborative piece guided by the instructions of a friend. the shirt and writing was a result of this influence, and the source of the "catboy" in the name. This digital illustration depicts the character "Perfume", who was the lead sidekick of my 2021 HSC project -- an animatic. Here, he is pictured with a vastly more colourful than usual perfume-bottle head, mimicking parts of cubism. This head is filled with liquid (being a perfume bottle ...) and serves as the bright "prism prison" that acts in the manner of a lighthouse to the piece: guiding the eye from the centre of it across the rest of the work.
