{"id":"wm66skkk","organisation":"1wz1m3el","title":"Event- 15th October: LD Comics x Cartoon Museum: meeting creators and each other","description":"Changing the world one comic at a time…

Overview
LD Comics returns to the Cartoon Museum this autumn to showcase comic creation and illustration.
The richness and range of comics has grown over the years. These days we can enjoy anything from autobiographical memoirs, reportage and travelogues through to fantasy, romance, the whimsical and wordless.… A picture really does reveal a thousand words/worlds!

Join us on 15th October for an event that celebrates a window into the diversity of comic craft.
The evening will feature two speakers at different stages of their comic-creating journey. We’ll meet Yu-Ching Chiu and Hayley Gullen who’ll share more about their work, tuck into some Q&A and have a little wander around the museum shop’s collection which is an exhibit in itself!

Speakers
Yu-Ching Chiu is an illustrator and visual narrative creator based in Cambridge. Her comic takes inspirations from curious incidents and existential inquiry, is usually wordless and with the use of metaphor. She is one of the Six to Watch 2026 by Broken Frontier, and one of the Finalists in the First Graphic Novel Awards 2025. Yu-Ching will share how she formed her narrative approach from her early work “Lulu’s Flight” to her currently ongoing graphic novel project.

Hayley Gullen was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2022, aged 37. She’s recovered now, but life will never be the same again. Her need to express herself throughout cancer treatment led to the rediscovery of a lifelong interest - cartooning - and the publication of her graphic memoir, \"This Might Surprise You: A Breast Cancer Story\". She lives in South London with her husband and daughter.
