Her lasted series titled, ‘Graphic Storytellers/Comic Creatives in Conversation’ comes at a time when fine artists are increasingly using references from graphic novels, comics, popular visual storytelling forms, to give a contemporary power to their work. “I want to look at interesting practitioners in the graphic novel form and explore what they are doing right now. Unpublished and published, I want to give the people who are pushing boundaries and producing creative solutions to today’s questions a voice within the fine art community through this series” – JCM. Previous conversations have been with Wallis Eates, Mark Stafford and Patrick Wray and forthcoming will be Desdemona McCannon, Nicola Streeten, Eze Chimalio and Danny Noble. “I will be expanding the series to talk to animators through 2020 and 2021.”
