About
@abigailranirai
Abigail is a Cartoonist and Illustrator. She works in traditional and digital mediums. With a narrative-led Illustration practice. Her comics explore themes of life, death and transformation. Highlighting the relationship between human feeling and the wild/natural world through unspeaking characters who shift and change with the experiences and trials they go through. Often inspired loosely by South Asian narrative art forms.
She has experience leading as well as supporting workshops for adults and children, including comics workshops, printmaking and zine making.
