"Who Is Superman? A Private Interview with Lois Lane" a fancomic about hope and connection.
I've had this story in mind for so long and I'm very excited to be able to share it at last. Thank you for reading, and happy Lunar New Year!
The first part of the work is a deliberate, carefully thought-out representation of Finnishness, a certain vision of an idealized history and identity with the underlying themes of foreign influences like the Russian rule. It includes pages from my late grandfather’s passport, specifically the pages from his trips to Saint Petersburg and other previously soviet cities. There are cuttings of old Finnish postcards, family album photos, a Helsinki postal stamp and dried flowers picked from near my childhood home. The snippets of text are cut from a work booklet from Tampere Art Museum’s exhibition around Magnus Enckell.
The second part aims to mix vintage elements with contemporary, strange and “foreign” imagery. This part includes a page from a Swedish-Finnish dictionary, cuttings from fashion magazines like VOGUE, advertisements, discarded photos and once again text from the Tampere Art Museum booklet.
Text in pictures: (Land of the midnight sun) / What is or is not Finnishness? / What kind of power is connected to the definition of Finnishness? / Are you observing something familiar? / How about unfamiliar?
me and @millhousex are currently doing a Remix Rescue playthrough so naturally I had to draw our epic original Troll OCs, Spruce and Honj Rordy
(NOT to be confused with Bruce and John Dory)
Lena Luthor has been looking for a properly celebratory way to break in her new desk. That little accident with the Harun El couldn’t have been better timed…
Wanted to draw the cute Tinkaton wearing a festive Kimono that you can get in Pokemon Café Remix right now. And added a few matching buddies for her to hang out with. 😊
