The Tale of Icarus Reimagined

Lianhuanhua - Chinese Pulp Comic

A reimagining of the Greek myth of Icarus through Vedic philosophy and the Chinese lianhuanhua comic tradition. Rather than a story of failure, this becomes one of transformation — Icarus reaches the sun, discovers spiritual beings, and returns enlightened.

Illustrated in black and white using clean ink line work, with sharp angular forms representing the material world and soft rounded shapes expressing spiritual truth. Drawn in Procreate, laid out in InDesign, and printed as a physical booklet.
