Dreamscape, delirium, danse macabre: an interview with Zara Slattery.

This email interview with graphic artist Zara Slattery features discussions on the potential of graphic testimonies to document personal afflictions and educate empathetic readers with particular reference to her text Coma (2021). Slattery describes the process of creation and the thoughts, matter and material that went into creating Coma. Slattery reflects on her decision to share her story, artistic influences, the choice of the visual palette, the inclusion of multiple voices to delineate the collectiveness of the illness experience, myth and animal imagery.
