Came up with the concept chosen for the Key Art, creating a thumbnail and written description that was adapted to the final Key Art.

The game is set on an ocean liner spanning multiple periods of time during the early part of the 1900s. The concept for the Key Art was to create a scene that resembled a stage on an ocean liner stranded on a massive pile of mannequins, effectively capturing the eerie atmosphere and narrative of "Layers of Fear 2
