HADESTOWN
HADESTOWN is a passion project created for fans of the Tony Award-winning musical that comprises three records, three vinyl sleeves and a series of motion graphics. This vinyl box set is a beautiful collector’s item that goes beyond conventional musical-theatre album art by depicting narrative elements in each final design. By marrying contemporary design elements with a more traditional illustrative approach, this set lends itself more authentically to the show’s period, music and overall aesthetic.
SPECTACLE IN HORROR
Spectacle in Horror is a series of film posters based on the themes of spectacle, exploitation and the glamorization of violence in horror. Each poster holds a visual element of the “media” they're associated with: film for Nope, internet for Perfect Blue & video games/arcade cabinets for Five Nights at Freddy’s. The most important goal for these posters was to divert away from the mystique of traditional horror posters which often focus more on terror and building suspense, instead my posters focused on confronting the viewer with the very same trauma that the film’s characters are subjected to. The viewer does not deserve to be spared from the horror.

PSYCHOPOMP
This was one of my narrative pieces from last semester entitled Psychopomp, I chose a song I love to adapt to the prompt. This zine was one of my first more experimental ventures into playing with composition to move the narrative, it had mixed results but I love it greatly. It was also a rather personal piece that was meant as an allegory for some real-life experiences I've had with losing loved-ones or having loved ones hurt by irresponsible drivers, this project was super cathartic.

Howdy!
I’m Jade L. Wilkinson-DeRoché! (a mouthful I know) For simplicity sake I go by Jade Lucille, my middle name, an homage to my Grenadian grandmother Lucie & my French-Canadian grandmother Lucille. This name speaks to my heritage and my work as I am a proud Grenadian-Canadian artist whose upbringing and identity has greatly impacted the work I create.I'm driven by my interests, my inspiration comes mainly from childhood and I pull from that nostalgia for my work often. I want my work to look like the early 70s and Y2K had a lovechild that was a little to into cartoons. My goal is to create work for people like me. I want myself, my friends & anybody who doesn’t feel represented to be able to see themselves in my work.
