Small Press Day – the UK and Ireland’s (and this year maybe a little beyond) celebration of all things self and micropublished comics – is coming on July 25th and we have your exclusive first look at the SPD poster here today at Broken Frontier!
Designed by the brilliant Kamila Krol, aka Pigeon the poster features Small Press Day mascot Paige (created by SPD founder David Ziggy Greene) and we’re sure you’ll agree its an amazing image. We will update the Small Press Day site over the weekend and add a new link so you can download the poster for your own events. As you can see Kamila’s design also ties into some of the folkloric elements of her wider practice.
Kamila’s beautiful artwork and comics are often infused with elements of Slavic myth and use delicate colour choices and dreamlike lines to transport readers to the worlds she creates. She was a Broken Frontier ‘Six to Watch’ creator in 2020 which underlines just how much we think of her work. For more on Pigeon’s work please check out our reviews of Fine Young Ladies here and Rusalka: Whispers of the Forest here. You can also read an interview with her here at BF and visit her site and online store here.
Small Press Day is sponsored and funded by Broken Frontier. If you’d like to contribute to its running costs please visit our Ko-fi page here.
