“Does a Dog know Art can Disappear?” was a commission for The Guardian. A graphic narrative where I tell the story of a group of young European surrealists, such as Buñuel, Breton, Varo, and Carrington, who came to Mexico City in the middle of the 20th century. And how around politics, poverty and the discovery of the unconscious mind, “they planted their artworks in the land, and left them as they left their ghosts, spells that lasted forever.” The full work can be seen here.
I read an extract of my piece ‘Synesthesia’ from the anthology edited by Emma Bolland and published by Dostoyevsky Wannabe. The launch of the book was part of Off the Shelf Festival.
