An interesting little project, “It could be me, but it’s actually Paul Paper” is a mix of illustrations, graphics, typography and photography exploring that very sentence. The results are unique to each artist’s style and expertise, creating a wonderful collection of artwork (a small publication might also be in the pipeline, fingers-crossed).

Comic, and art fans alike should start getting excited about the release of Liquid City, in November. A showcase of some of the best and emerging talents from Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam and more. Already familiar with the American comics, the Japanese manga, (and breaking through in recent years), the Korean manhwa?… this collection of work will expose you to the Southeast Asian comic / art scene.
“LIQUID CITY presents the unique visions of artists and writers based mainly in Southeast Asia,” said editor Sonny Liew. “The creators involved range from established figures in the region’s comics communities like Lat and Gerry Alanguilan, to exciting new talents like Nguyen Thanh Pong, kenfoo and Shari Chankhamma.”

Everyone makes mistakes. Every artist, designer, every human being does.
