Redrawing photos: comics as a medium to read the family album

“Redrawing photos: comics as a medium to read the family album”, presentation by María José Suárez

Tuesday 5 July at 11 AM — Room 1.12 (Blandijnberg)

On Tuesday morning, María José Suárez, who has been an intern with the comics team for the past two months, will present the research for her MA thesis at EESI (Angoulême):

“As photography has been used as a reference for comic book authors almost from the beginning, this project aims to understand what happens when they use pictures from the family album. For this, I put myself in the experiment of drawing from this type of photos to make a dialogue with different authors that have done the same.”
