About "Misleading boxes"

by Daphne Depassé

About the artwork

I made "Misleading cubicles" to illustrate how we all categorise people into neat cubicles, but that those cubicles are not quite what they seem.

Making this was a process of learning and discovery. I used internet tutorials to learn how to draw optical illusions and then bent those techniques into my own interpretation.

I drew the black lines of the 'boxes' with digital graphite to emphasise their hard, undefined nature, as a reflection of how we often misjudge or make assumptions based on superficial features. I painted the background with digital watercolour, symbolising the softness behind harsh judgements. "Everyone is sweet, even if they are unintentionally judgmental", I thought with this.

In the end, the message of 'Misleading Pigeonholes' is a simple one: Do Not Assume. We are all more complex, beautiful and unique than any box suggests.
