Stories From The Front Line at Sick Festival Brighton!
Posted: February 12, 2014
STORIES FROM THE FRONT LINE is an innovative graphic medicine commission for a public space installation as part of Sick Festival 2014 in Brighton. Four fantastic comics artists present four stories from the Front Line of medical practice in Brighton. Four patients and four doctors share their stories, giving their own accounts of true events that are moving, revealing, honest and challenging. Ian Williams, ILYA, Nicola Streeten and Woodrow Phoenix (above) illuminate the personal and ethical issues of illness and healthcare through individual’s experiences. The resulting graphic narratives are presented in a large-scale light-box installation outdoors and for free in Jubilee Square, Brighton in the lead-up to, and throughout the festival from February 10th to March 31st 2014. Go take a look and a read, storms permitting!
