Polymorphism

This series plays with the perception and general assumptions of the observer. As soon as we see an image, we immediately put it in a category in our brains based on what we know. But when we see something, are we really looking? These drawings create that initial reaction of something familiar, but after careful inspection the viewer can see that there is something that does not belong.

These small drawings in a big page encourage the viewer to get closer, to study the image and find something slightly off. They challenge them to question what they initially thought they saw, because things are not always what they seem.
