Recursion

Set in the near future, “Dead Men Tell No Tales” follows the story of three survivors who, while awaiting rescue, discover that they are not human, but are instead androids whose lives and experiences have been entirely manufactured for the purpose of serving at a family entertainment restaurant. This collection of illustrations strives to explore the nature of identity as it relates to the mind and body, as a way of imagining what is left after the loss of that which makes us fundamentally human.
