Event description

This public seminar by acclaimed French graphic novelist Clément Baloup explores the unique potential of comics biography in representing lived experience. Drawing on his Viet Kieu Memories series, in particular, his latest volume Down Under, Baloup examines themes of migration, memory, and identity, and reflects on the role of the comics artist as both reporter and storyteller. Grounded in personal narratives and broader socio-cultural histories, his work offers insight into how comics can map family, place, and collective memory onto the page.

A Q&A session and book signing will follow the public seminar.
