Entry Description

This digital illustration was created as a faux New Yorker magazine cover to highlight the current book banning issue among several American states. One that has since led to the miseducation and severe hinderance to academic development as students are provided limited access to fundamental information. A lone young student sits in the midst of a burning library, uncaring of the havoc surrounding her; She represents the inaccessibility of such education, particularly culturally and historically, as suggested by her brown skin tone.
