The Uncanny Archive
The Uncanny Archive was a short, experimental project in which I found old photos of myself and family and reimagined them as photos with creepy goings on. Coloured with watercolour pencils on several separate layers, then compiled and edited digitally in Procreate on iPad. Once completed, the illustrations were printed and photographed in a "found footage" documentation style.
