Grief in the Pandemic

Jessica Durrant creates a melancholic cover and interior illustration for The Washington Post Magazine.

The feature is a piece that talks about grieving during the pandemic and how in a culture that normally finds it difficult to talk about death, the losses of life need to be dealt with as a collective trauma. Jessica's sensitive artwork touches on human emotion with colours depicting low mood, elements of nature suggesting a need for openness and a design which allows the reader to connect with the art.
