I made an illustration for @thebafflermag ! ‘Sweet Little Lies: Our love affair with scams’ by Elias Rodriques and Clinton Williamson. Thank you so much design heros @noideasnyc for making this happen 😊 “Trapped in a world where charlatans run the show, we turned to scam TV to tell ourselves that the shams would lose. We followed the stories obsessively. We did not want to be detectives and had never liked cops. But the shows were addictive, even if they turned to officers to expose the racket in question. We could not stop watching when they trotted out FBI agents for a moral compass. And we could not stop hoping that something would stop the scammer-in-chief, which the television was all too happy to tell us would be prison. Never mind that the genre was a lotus. We were all too happy to eat it.” #design #editorialillustration #illustration #graphicdesign #scam #airbrush #money
