Bücher von Gareth Brookes

Gareth Brookes was born in Woking and studied Fine Art at Newcastle University and The Royal College of Art. In 2012 he was the winner of the Myriad First Graphic Novel Competition, with an extract from his graphic novel The Black Project (Myriad, 2013), which went on to win Best Original Graphic Novel at the Broken Frontier Award and was longlisted for Best Book at the British Comic Awards. Original work from the book was featured in the 2014 Comics Unmasked show at The British Library. Known for his unusual approach to materials, he has used embroidery, textiles, lino-cut print, stenciling and even pressed flowers in his work and much of his self-published output is handmade. He has delivered workshops at The Eden Project and elsewhere.
