BA (Hons) Illustration
Jake Pascoe
Deans’ Award for Studentship
Throughout my degree and illustrative practice I have always been fascinated with the theme of technology integration within our culture and daily lives. Using a variety of programmes, digital software skills and illustrative techniques to explore and document our relationship with not only technology itself but also our relationships with each other through the use of social media. As anĀ illustrator, I always find it important to create illustrations that not only engage your audience but also leave a lasting impact.
Using absurdist humour within my art and commercial illustrations helps not only to document my fascination with technology from a unique viewpoint but also gives me a strong drive to create illustrations that can thrive within different contexts and environments. My degree course has enabled me to develop a strong sense of organisational and self-discipline skills that I will carry forward in my commercial and personal practice.
