So-called Australia
State Library of Western Australia - Level 1
12:00 – 12:45pm

Join this eclectic panel of comics-makers as they discuss how they have re-imagined Australia as a land of fantasy, science fiction and the supernatural. The paradoxical nature of this place as both ancient and young, untouched and unsettled, pristine and polluted, makes it uniquely fertile ground for the imagination. The works discussed will include web comic sensation Solid State by Lola Baldsing and Scott Higginbotham, Spinifex Valley by Molly Hunt, which launches The Alchemy Universe series, and the post-apocalyptic Perth opus Dead by Thirty by Andrei Buters.

This event is part of the annual Perth Comic Arts Festival, a completely free to attend, volunteer run celebration of comics, their creators and readers.
