Black page of history

Editorial

Commissioned | New Talent

Why did you make this work:
I created this illustration for an online blog called Dział Zagraniczny. The image visually describes the article about the legacy of colonialism and rasism in modern Netherlands, as well as how the Netherlands is trying to rip out the "black page of history" (slavery) from their "golden age."

What materials and techniques did you use?:
I drew the illustration using a black ink pen, then I scanned and coloured it digitally.

How were your illustrations used:
I made the illustration to both visually describe the article and to accompany the text on Instagram and Spotify.
