| 'wake' in corniche . 2021 |
i'm happy to announce my participation in the third volume of 'corniche', an annual comics anthology published by the sharjah art foundation (saf). i've been included in all volumes so far, and it's truly an honour to continuously be a part of this amazing publication, alongside many of my talented friends and peers. 'wake' was quite an emotional comic to make. as mentioned in an earlier post, i had someone dearest to my heart pass away over the summer (see here). i felt i wasn't able to mourn her passing properly because we were in different parts of the world, and i didn't get a chance to speak to her one last time before the sad news. i think making this comic was a way of releasing this unresolved energy and emotion, and in someway, give myself a sense of closure. i won't say too much – i hope the comic speaks for itself, and that you enjoy it. if she's reading this, i hope she enjoys it too!
thank you team saf for having me on board always, and to nasir nasrallah – talented artist and the brains behind this amazing anthology. i dedicate 'wake' to sina, and to anyone who needs to be remided that those who pass on never go away...
