Killing and Dying #[nn]

Oct 2015 · Drawn & Quarterly · 26.95 CAD; 22.95 USD
“A Brief History of the Art Form Known as "Hortisculpture"”

In "A Brief History of the Art Form Known as 'Hortisculpture'," Adrian Tomine crafts a quietly powerful story about identity and connection, following a college student whose life unravels when she discovers she bears an uncanny resemblance to a woman who performs online. Written, drawn, inked, colored, and lettered entirely by Tomine, this 2015 issue from Drawn & Quarterly captures the emotional weight of coincidence and the complex aftermath of a chance encounter. The cover, also by Tomine, reflects the story’s introspective tone with its restrained, precise line work.
