Instagram On The Edge: Conscious Comics
A series of impactful comic strips bringing awareness, appreciation and focus to a selection of endangered species for the conservation action charity On The Edge.
The comic format was chosen in order to communicate scientific insight in a digestible and accessable way, with each story blending scientific context and emotional narratives in order to tell sometimes complex stories in a relatable manner. The resulting series of comic strips were brought to life by 4 different commissioned artists, each telling a different story from the natural world in an accessible and impactful way.
The full set of Conscious Comics, as well as a written overview of the project can be found here.
