Shooting Martha
Author: David Thewlis
Project Type: Speculative
Details:
My speculative take on David Thewlis's psychological thriller in which an acclaimed director hires an actress to portray his late wife in his actual life, while he tries to complete production on the cinematic adaptation of his own childhood. Past, present, ficton and reality all get tangled in this web of identity -- which is exactly what I depict in this jacket design by recreating a piece of art created by a minor character in the text.
"I actually prefer this to the real one. Much more what I had in mind." - David Thewlis (for real, he actually wrote this on my Instagram page! You can see it here!)
