Lastly @KaneIcarusLynch from USA. Kane’s journalism comics for The Nib examine topics such as conspiracy theories, Russian politics, and undocumented workers in the United States. In 2020 he contributed Guantanamo Voices: True accounts from the world’s most infamous prison

Kate Evans @cartoonkate shed new light on the refugee crisis at the Calais ‘jungle’ with Threads, explored the life of a Marxist philosopher in Red Rosa, & has made a lifetime’s work of exposing, explaining & ridiculing inequity, ecological disaster and human rights violations.

Plus @JoanReilly will join us from rural Pennsylvania, USA. With author Elly Lonon she worked on Amongst the Liberal Elite, exploring societal inequalities solidified by Trump. Her current frank and relatable diary comic project explores her experiences with brain cancer.

Beata Sosnowska, from Poland, is a multimedia artist, poet, comic illustrator, experimental filmmaker and graphic designer. She recently worked with Japanese ethnic minority Ainu and Polish woman artists on “Mówi Onna” (“Speaking Onna”).

Then @siiriviljakka Siiri Viljakka is a visual & sequential artist from Finland. Her often deeply biographical work is powerful in its own right, but also gently normalises all forms of gender expression, queerness & bodily being.

1st up will be Myfanwy Tristram @mockduck, whose comics explore activism, protest & pop culture. She’ll explain how Draw the Line started as a humble Facebook post and blossomed into an international project involving more than 100 comic artists.
