When I first read Animal Farm at 14, it deeply shook me with its raw depiction of power abuse and dark humor. Revisiting it three years ago, I found its impact even more profound, highlighting its timeless relevance and unsettling authenticity.
On vintage French butcher paper, butcher knives, and 1940s meat recipe books, I painted the book’s maxims in a propaganda style. Using thick layers of black or red paint, I created bold, menacing typography designed to capture attention and provoke thought.
