The Space Boy mini-series is the first installment of the Wonder half of the ‘Joy & Wonder’ series. The ‘Joy’ half and the ‘Wonder’ half each have their own distinct feel.
The ‘Joy’ portion of the series is inspired by nostalgic feelings and bringing more black joy in art. I want these pieces to heal and make people feel good instantly just by looking at them.
The ‘Wonder’ pieces are inspired by children’s imaginations being so vast and uncorrupted like ours are. Going through life, we get told things aren’t possible and we then, lose our flame. But children often think anything is possible. I want to explore my inner child and everyone else’s along the way and find that flame again.
The Space Boy series embodies the meaning behind the ‘Wonder’ side. Anything is possible through imagination.
‘Space Boy: Liftoff!’ is the part of the story where we start to truly believe. It’s where our dreams start to blend into our reality. We go places we’ve never been and see things we never thought we’d see.
