The Arrival

The Arrival by Shaun Tan
Today I have discovered Shaun Tan in the book The Arrival. An artist capable of combining the fantastic with the trite, in inspiring and sensible illustrations. His book reminded me the singular technique of Moebius. In an image book with no words, Shaun Tan makes you feel the experience and the lostness of an immigrant. The fantastic land produces an unparalleled perception of being in a foreign world, without references and submerged in an unknown language.
Voyage D’Hermes by Moebius
