Jin Xia / MFA Illustration Practice ‘21
Postcards to the Past
2020
Ink, graphite, and digital
Postcards to the Past is an ongoing series of illustrations and personal narratives inspired by my childhood experience: a trip to the seaside, the dentist visit, time spent with my pet turtle, and an unforgettable final exam. These memories are dreams that stay as I wake. In an enchanted place where the colors are brighter and the air softer, these intimate fragments softly echo my nostalgia for those fleeting moments of delight and beauty.
