How to Fix a Broken Nest with Thi Bui and Elizabeth Marruffo

How to Fix a Broken Nest
State Library of Western Australia - Level 1
3:00 - 3:45pm

Internationally acclaimed graphic novelist Thi Bui will join PCAF's Creative Director, Elizabeth Marruffo to discuss their motivations for making autobiographical comics and the discoveries they've made along the way. Join us as we reflect on the homes that we make, the homes that we choose, the homes that are imagined and the homes that are inherited.

Thi Bui is the author of the award winning graphic memoir, The Best We Could Do. She is currently researching and drawing Nowhereland, a work of graphic nonfiction about immigrant detention and deportation. Elizabeth Marruffo is currently working on her debut comic Pup Pup is the Boss of the Stars, set in her small hometown on the border in Mexico.

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.
