分享到
From 14-15 August, Taiwanese illustrator Fifi Kuo was invited to participate in the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival in a series of events. During the festival, she held several workshops called “Scribbling on the Sofa”, where she encouraged children to be creative and develop their own distinct artistic style through drawing, and took part in a talk titled “Illustration in Translation”. Moderated by festival Illustrator in Residence Eilidh Muldoon, Fifi was joined by artists from Syria and Poland to discuss picture books in translation, visual differences and how they can enhance our understanding of other cultures.
Fifi has been shortlisted for the prestigious Klaus-Flugge Prize for illustration, the winner of which will be announced 11 September. Three of her books have been published in the UK, with further plans for publication in other countries across North America and Europe.
