Amo queste storie surreali che fanno riflettere sulle cose quotidiane della vita. E amo lo stile del disegno.

I don't like it. I don't like the characters. 

Ruth Asawa: An Artist Takes Shape by Sam Nakahira

dark emotional informative inspiring reflective tense medium-paced

4.5

This comic tells the story of Ruth Asawa, an artist who lived in the middle of the Second World War, in United Stated of America, when japanese people were discriminated.
She is an artist and this comic tells her path trought all difficiulties and obstacles for persecure her dream an her purpose in life.
The art style is beautiful, simple and minimalist but really connected with Ruth's art, in a sort of way.
I really appreciated this reading and I loved the thematic and sincere way to tells emotions.
