Nicolas Ridou, Illustrator, Paris

Description

Illustration depicts two hands engaged in a handshake, but instead of a clean connection, they are dripping with a viscous green slime. The hand on the left is adorned with a dark suit jacket with a white shirt cuff peeking out. The hand on the right is draped in a pink sleeve. Beneath the handshake, on a wooden surface, there is a piece of paper and a pen that are also covered in the green substance. The background features a clear, bright blue sky, suggesting a juxtaposition of a positive setting with a negative or corrupt interaction. The art style is reminiscent of classic illustrations.
