GERASCOPHOBIA
illustration

Growing old is part of life, whether it's one's choice or not. There are people in the world that suffer gerascophobia (fear of growing old). They dont want to grow old, it may be because they are scared to loose their physical beauty or are scared to die.

For my narrative illustration, i created a tree made out of the letters which repeats the word "life" over and over again. The tree represents the wisdom and knowledge that one learns throughout life. Viens are coming out from the tree's branches and are grabbing on to a girls sillouette. It's forcing her to grow up.

The girl tries to escape. The viens that wrap around the girl's body create the word "resist". wich is what the girl is doing. She is reaching up with her hands to an empty space that significes the blank gap she has between her childhood and adolences.
