Dutch newspaper NRC asked me to create a cover and multiple spot illustrations for an article about children with obesitas. The article focuses on the impact of using medical solutions on such young children and the consequences of these choices for the rest of their lives.
To illustrate the heaviness of this subject I uses the imagery of a teddybear going through this whole process. Using soft textures and colors with childish lines I wanted the viewer to be confronted with the contrast of the youth of these children and the heavy medical stuff they go through.
