FAR FROM IT
[comic book]
Within my graduation year at the Royal Academy of Art, I worked on a fictional story which I developped into a spatial installation / set design, accompanied with audio. For more info, and images of the project, you can have a look HERE.
The background theoretical research (thesis) on the topics of hoarding, memory, and nostalgia, took the form of a graphic novel, of which the plot is being gradually revealed, in-between the text. The following pages include the fictional story, illustrated by me; a first draft version of what ended up being the final script of the project.
You can read the full research paper HERE.
THE FUNERAL
Illustration and poster design for the short documentary
film ‘The Funeral / Η Κηδεία’ (2021), by Katerina Markoulaki.
‘The observational documentary The funeral, follows the funeral of Mikis Theodorakis in Crete. While dozes of reporters compete for the best shot, a biker, a conductor and a city, pay their respect to the great musician. An observational film, on the experience of Greek junta, the anti dictatorship struggle and the regime change in the 70's. A humorous take on modern Greece, surveilance and the rituals of grief in Crete’.
