GRUPPE ISSUE 5

3D graphic for the Inside cover in GRUPPE Issue 5

Gruppe invited me to create a 3D design for the inside covers of their fifth issue, themed around con artists and tricksters. The piece takes inspiration from one of the oldest street gambling games - Cups and Balls - where deception lies in the sleight of hand. Echoing the spirit of the trickster, the design plays with visibility, misdirection, and the blurred line between illusion and reality.
