Why did you make this work:
Emergence Magazine contacted me to develop the visual interpretation of an audio story by David G. Haskell to accompany his forthcoming book, “Sounds Wild And Broken: Sonic Marvels, Evolution's Creativity, And The Crisis Of Sensory Extinction.” In the piece, Haskell brings the listener on a deep time journey through the origins and evolution of sound from the beginning of the universe.

How was the illustration used:
It is the header animation of Emergence magazine feature on the audiostory. Its pieces are also for social media and promotion.

How did you make this work:
I took references on the Biodiversity Heritage Library, recreated animals and accent elements. Developed a landscape background that evoked primal natural times. A mix of digital illustrations and collage intervention.
