At the festival

This year, the author of the festival’s visual is also the protagonist of the exhibition at the International Museum and Library of Music.  American author focused on short comics, Lilli Carré is capable of making an entire world fit in the space of a few pages.  Her most successful stories, dark and minimal, have a strong iconic and symbolic feel; a quality often found in daydreams and mixing disturbingly fantasy with real life.  The power of the unconscious is mitigated through Carré’s delicate lines, she never exagerates with grotesque tones, but drowns her stories in a fable-like atmosphere and pastel colors which often fills her neat black and white.
