CURBED - Sound and the city

Illustrations published on Curbed.com for the longread ‘Sound and the city’ on noise pollution and the increasing scarcity of silence. I was inspired by the idea of sound as a predator, linking this sensitivity to our prehistoric roots. Also striking was the the lack of quiet specifically for communities of color. I imagined this constant hum of noise as both an external, and an internal vibration.
