2022 Loughborough University Hackathon—1st Place
The Hackathon is an event organised at Loughborough University by the LSU Enterprise and LU Arts societies, in which teams brainstorm and develop a solution to a challenge in only a couple of hours.
My team chose to "imagine the future of the consumption and distribution of art". As a solution, we designed an app that recognises the location, colour and texture of an uploaded image and lets the user replace certain things (people, backgrounds, etc.) with famous artworks modified to imitate the original image. The art comes with gallery-like descriptions of the famous art. (pre-AI)
Shower Thoughts Comics
Shower Thoughts Comics was a weekly comic strip drawn and written by me from 2018 to 2020.
The idea started as I wanted to illustrate scenarios and jokes that I came up with during my everyday routine. When working on each comic, I would try to achieve an effective pace with a limited amount of panels and set up a strong punchline.
The comics were drawn digitally and published on Instagram, Reddit, Twitter, and Webtoons, building a large following in the process. You can read them in the link below!
