In the Buddhist tradition, Jataka tales are stories that tell of the Buddha's past lives before he reached enlightenment in his final life. They are often told to children without a religious connotation in the same way we tell fantastical stories of princesses and dragons in western culture. This piece is a series of posters that illustrate the journey to enlightenment through a few of the hundreds of Jataka tales. The stories here share themes of sacrifice and selflessness, and are meant to showcase not only how Buddha has always been a virtuous figure, but how one should act and treat others. I am fascinated with religion as a subject and wanted to explore how storytelling often boils down to similar themes and lessons despite being from drastically different cultures.
