An engaging debate on how illustration can move beyond a subordinate practice and decorativeness and how it can effectively tell us something about the world. Rethinking about illustration as a visual language that can have a powerful impact and make a statement or embrace a view point. Illustration as a storytelling tool for both personal and socio/cultural stories. The engaging concept that linked the speakers throughout the day was the topic of sentimentality and how this affects illustrators of present and past times. It's been a refreshing privilege having a selected range of practitioners talking about their personal experience and the reality of the ever changing business and realm of illustration. Looking forward to see the next chapter coming together!
