In 2015 A Wolfgang Crowe was the target of a violent homophobic attack while working in his father’s shop. Inspired by that event, his four-part series, Fractures, tells the story of the physical, psychological and legal struggles that continue after cuts heal and bruises fade.

Following in the graphic medicine tradition of Lighter Than My Shadow (Katie Green) and Stitches (David Small), Fractures draws on past trauma to create a brave, visually inventive and incisive work that highlights the vulnerability and strength within us all.

PRAISE FOR BOOK ONE:

Ed Firth (Horny & High)

“Strong and vitally important work from an artist and project I suspect we will all be hearing about a lot more in the months to come.”
Andy Oliver, Broken Frontier

Both issues are A4, perfect bound and black and white. Book One = 48 pages; Book Two = 50 pages
