Cover image for Dublin Inquirer print edition #83

The housing crisis is a terrifying problem, that makes a lot of people, including myself feel very insecure.

Some time ago I was watching a documentary about a family of mother and daughter who were evicted from the house they were renting for years, and they had to change temporary accommodation and move all the time.

And I thought that in many situations like that, it seems like you are living in a ghost house, which can disappear at any moment, which creates a lot of insecurity and anxiety, and I wanted to express it through this image.

I am an illustrator and artist based in Dublin. My favourite subjects are people, their emotions, struggles they face, and special moments that make our life beautiful.
