Here we have the header from October 2015 of a crowd burned through with jack-o'-lantern faces. I wanted to do a piece for the dark season to evoke that feeling of Halloween without simply repeating the traditional imagery. I wanted something that would give the aura of the unusual that jack-o'-lanterns posses minus the happy go lucky feeling even scary jack-o'-lanterns seem to have. I also wanted to access that unsettling feeling when a large crowd is looking at you and only you....zombie fears activate!
For 2015, I wanted to take the headers in a different direction than the work I had been producing. I chose to adopt a looser style. Although the 2014 pieces all had some underlying element of dark humor or social commentary, the 2015 headers have all moved back towards the essence of the work I want to create: horror.
