IV: mixed media in suicide kings

suicide kings vol2-13 suicide kings vol2-14 (1)

the usage of the bay window as pov transition is so cinematic like a curtain change

and it also like really illuminates the mixing of reality and illustration as magic

and the traumatic narrative allegory using magical elements to veil the truth

the illustration IS a depiction of reality and by combining mixed media photo elements you get an uncanny sense of being unable to discern where to draw the line of fable/magic/fantasy vs. reality
