Out of Oxford  -  Serena Malyon

I did this piece out of my love and respect for the His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman. This piece is for “The Subtle Knife”, and depicts Will, Lyra, the tabby cat and Pantalaimon as they escape from Oxford to  Cittàgazze.

See the work in progress here!

Cellulose nitrate was used to make dice from the late 1860s until the middle of the twentieth century, and the material remains stable for decades. Then, in a flash, they can dramatically decompose. Nitric acid is released in a process called outgassing. The dice cleave, crumble, and then implode.

From Dice: Deception, Fate & Rotten Luck by Ricky Jay and Rosamond Purcell, 2002.

x files studies but this time I tired to achieve that VHS feeling. I very vaguely remember watching some episodes as a kid, and I think this is as close as I've ever got to recreating that memory of a small, grainy tv in a dark room

now that people are starting to get their copies, it seems like a good time to share the art i did for jacob geller's book, HOW A GAME LIVES! 🫀🗝️🏚️ i was so stoked to get to do the art for the CONTROL, ANATOMY, AND THE LEGACY OF THE HAUNTED HOUSE chapter — that video essay influenced my thinking on haunted houses so much & it was so cool to come full circle and do official art for it!
