JoAnn Purcell, Disability Daily Drawn, mixed media on paper, 4x4 inches, 2016. This project commenced May 2016 and began as an investigation into the experience of living beside disability, specifically as a mother of a child with Down syndrome. The quotidian encounters were transposed daily into a 4-panel comic to encapsulate each encounter. The child responded to the images by adding colour.

Martha Newbigging, looking for queerness mixed media on paper, 16x24 inches, 2017 website: www.marthanewbigging.com looking for queerness This work investigates how drawing autobiographical comics might enable me to make sense of queer ways of being in my childhood – ways of being that may have been discounted, ignored, or suppressed. My practice looks at how drawing and performing the self through the medium of comics has the potential to produce new understandings for the maker of these self-representations.
