"Isadora’s art has a raw directness that doesn’t just communicate her on-page persona’s ordeal, it positively insists that we absorb and live it." --Broken Frontier
Pickles Yin is a final year student at a prestigious art school struggling to live up to her own expectations of how to navigate the transition from education to career.
Surrounded by nepotism and wealthy peers, her friend Radish suggests an alternative method to achieve success that results in crumbling teeth and deteriorating mental health.
A semi-autobiographical comic about struggling to finish the final year at a prestigious art school, Clio's debut full length work is a worthy successor to her acclaimed self-published zine, 'Is It Vague in Other Dimensions?'
Born in Manchester, Clio Isadora is now a London based comic book artist and illustrator. After graduating from Central Saint Martins she started producing and self publishing risograph comics which have been exhibited in the UK & USA.
