Her latest work came just a few days ago: a portrait of John Oliver wearing glasses over his glasses. It was a moment she took note of in an old Daily Show video, during one of Oliver’s field pieces at the RNC. “I thought it was silly and would perhaps go unnoticed to the audience,” Gadayan says. “So I grabbed the opportunity and poked fun at it in the only way I knew how, which was also a compliment to his antics—that they do not go unnoticed.”
