Navigating a Troubled Psychosphere
Written and Illustrated by Steven Kay (2020)
-
This three-part series began as a meditation on the uncertainty, fear—and unexpected hope—that emerged during the unprecedented experience of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Navigating a Troubled Psychosphere was originally published on social media, where it found an engaged audience (everyone was on their phones at that stage!).
Visually, I drew on a favourite mid-century retro colour palette, combining text boxes, handwritten lettering, and paper textures to give the series a tactile, comic book feel.
