ESCAPISM

ILLUSTRATION

More than just a form of art, music is a medium where many seek escape from the realities of life.

Escapism portrays that weightless and psychedelic experience that one goes through when immersed in music.

The transition from darkens to light that music provides is portrayed through colour and the protagonist’s development. From the deep and dark sea encircled by stingrays, she slowly emerges into the sky where the stingray metamorphose into swallows and finally, she breaks through into space with her heart bursting with joy.
