Guide Me By the Waves

Graphic Novel
3x3 International Illustration No.20, Merit
Hiii 9th Illustration, Merit
2022

Created during the isolation period of the year 2021 pandemic, telling a tale of pursuing inner freedom. It revolves around a young girl diagnosed with autism who faces a canvas on her desk, where she diligently writes her thoughts and knowledge about the world depicted in her beach oil painting, pouring all her emotions into it. One day, the artwork miraculously transforms into reality, beckoning her to step inside.

The girl witnesses the previously penned details coming alive in the painted world. Overwhelmed with wonder, she decides to remain within the canvas, becoming an integral part of the utopia she had crafted, all in search of her profound inner freedom.
