Lost Cities features the work of four people. City of Night written by Rachel TonThat and The Optometrist by Irene Lee are linked by themes of stillness and isolation. Louis Thomas is a Parisian illustrator, animator, and photographer whose photographs are featured at the beginning of each chapter, and in the fold out panel in the hand-bound book. Brittni Zotos is a New York printmaker and artist who makes abstract and organic compositions that evoke the feel of landscapes. Her work appears on the ebook cover, book flyleaves, and center panel.
