Molly Cranston & Safiye Gray

Abstract

For this presentation, we will talk about our collaborative approach to research-led Illustration. Illustration is often understood as a solitary vocation centred around a personal drawing style. However, we believe that an illustrative practice can be founded upon a collaborative approach through qualitative and communal gathering of research. We will be discussing the projects we have worked on during our partnership as research-based illustrators and book makers.
