Collaborations
A Cautionary Tale / Sugar Queens Journey
“A Cautionary Tale” is an enchanting and unique work of art blending the form of an experimental artist’s book with the sequentiality of a comic strip. This whimsical yet cogent visual narrative features a scanned-in sugar sculpture as the protagonist who interacts with hand-drawn characters and scenes in an adventure which spans thousands of years of history, mythology and politics.
