Australia is known for diversity and multiculturism. Through comics, 33 Australian artists express their creativity and identity at the exhibition titled "Australian Comics – Promoting Culture Through Visual Story Telling", which is on view at the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC). In collaboration with the Australian embassy and curator Jakub Mazerant of IllustrateYourLife, this series of retrospectives showcases the best and most original comic art from Down Under.
"In this exhibition, the artists are diverse. We have men, women, LGBTI and indigenous artists. It is important to make the exhibition accessible and open to everyone. Thankfully, we were able to have 33 artists showcase diversity. Also, the exhibition has at least one artist to represent every state of Australia. There is a map of Australia in the exhibition for Thai viewers, so they can learn where the states are," said Jakub, the exhibition curator.
