Caption9 revised 4
I illustrated the cover and first installment of Rachel Cusk’s novel Outline in the last issue of the Paris Review. The second portion of the novel is published in the current issue (208) with my illustrations and hand lettered captions. I’m forcing myself not to look ahead in the manuscript and only focus on the section I’m illustrating despite the temptation to read to the end! Pick up the latest the Paris Review and the previous issue and check out a bunch of my illustrations here (more in the issue).

The Return of the Repressed is a show that recently opened featuring original documents from the Louise Bourgeois’s recently discovered psychoanalytic writings, as well as drawings and sculptures, in the house of the founding father of psychoanalysis, The Freud Museum in London. It looks like fascinating exhibit.

The exhibition will raise fundamental questions about the relationship between art and life, and the therapeutic nature of art itself.
