Ilustrations commissioned by AIGA Eye on Design, the leading platform on visual design in the United States. The illustrations accompany a text by design educator Aggie Toppins on the need for design history to move from hero-based narratives to historiographies focused on contexts and cultures.

The illustration uses gradients and light to depict a shimmering world off the excitement of a new history being born. The graphic language moves from the science-based iconography common in the depiction of history to a more open, suspended, contemplative visual landscape. A moment for the mind to observe, wonder and imagine otherwise.
