Lost in London Magazine

An editorial illustration for the magazine aimed at city dwelling country lovers.

Published to coincide with the beginning of each season, Lost in London guides readers through urban sanctuaries of grass, trees and fresh air away from the smoke. This particular article was about the wildlife that can be found in brownfield sights, predominantly insects.

The intention of the brief was to portray the positive side of something more typically seen in a negative way (creepy crawlies). I liked the idea of these insects flocking to their urban oasis almost as if they were commuters in rush hour. Their bright colours detract from the grimy perception we associate with browfield sites and hopefully makes them more friendly (I myself have a fear of spiders afterall!)

Lost in London can be found in Tate Modern, Natural History Museum, Magma, Rough Trade East and also from Lost in London direct by ordering online here.
