Walking a fine line between “kitschy” and annoying, Ariana Bendaña (b.1999, US) strives to make each piece as obnoxiously memorable as possible. Bendaña’s thesis project is a thriller graphic novel that follows 2 friends following clues to uncover the truth behind their friend's disappearance. (Link to read in the description) Bendaña’s other work centers around science fiction, fashion illustration, and 3D modeling.
