I worked closely with the curator and artist on this book for painter Seraphine Pick, parallel to us working on the accompanying exhibition. I wanted the cover to emulate the canvas that she works on, having seen the process of them starting off blank and then through the process of applying layers of paint over and over slowly becoming an artwork.
In this series, Seraphine was being influenced by internet image searches and ideas of how people present themselves online-often in compromising positions. The pixelated patterns used on the cover and as section dividers were created from crops of her artworks, the pixels referencing the digital as well as the censoring of images.
