"Uncomics – an artistic field where contemporary art and comics inform each other.
Where the absence of sequence encourages the reader to investigate the picture plane(s) in any direction and order, becoming an active co-creator in the process. A space outside the tedious limitations of story, where images both abstract and suggestive interact."

Uncomics ask the question posed by wordless and abstract comics — "what use is a comics theory based on literary story structure and figurative narrative?"
Instead, uncomics shifts its focus away from mainstream comic books and graphic novels toward the experimental periphery of the art form. From linear sequence to a more ambiguously threaded montage extant in the wider visual arts.
The work has begun with the Uncomics anthology and podcast: https://uncomics.org
Is there actually an equivalent for the #microfiction hashtag #vss365 from the field of art and painting? A newsletter that you can subscribe to and you get a daily prompt as inspiration to paint something?
Boosts welcome! 🙏
Volume 2, page 1 pencilled. That's a long road begun.
