Mixed Media Comics Tutorial with Tajliya Jamal

Tajliya Jamal discusses creating mixed media comics! Tajliya Jamal is a queer, mixed-race person of colour whose work often deals with the (in)visibility of multiracial and queer identities, and feelings of discomfort, belonging, and difference. With a focus on layered text and detailed pattern, Taj’s work also aims to challenge viewers to read slowly. Taj likes to use book forms and print media as it is a more accessible art form for viewers and readers. Collaborative practices and community engagement are also a key aspect to book and print media that Taj values greatly.
