Editorial illustration done for a Polish LGBTQI+ magazine Duma (Pride).

I was approached by the editor of the magazine and asked to create an illustration for one of the articles titled Nie chcę być cis (I do not want to be cis[gender]) talking about queer joy - specifically the joy found in being transgender, what is often perceived as a martyr-like experience. The article by Ali Kopacz was printed in the April 2023 issue of Duma Magazine 'Bloom'.

The Strange Man (2020) - linocut.

An illustration inspired by David Lynch's Twin Peaks, carved in soft cut lino and printed with a water-based ink. Traditional printmaking techniques are a huge part of my inspiration and style.
