Diagnostics

Explore the codes of the ninth art with "Diagnostics," a graphic novel collaboration between Lucas Varela and Diego Agrimbau. This collection of six short stories revisits the tradition of fictional narrative through the lens of six mental disorders, each serving as the driving force to explore the boundaries of comic storytelling. Follow the heroines who struggle with sensory disorders that influence their perception of the comic form, from a researcher able to decipher onomatopoeias in space to a student who only understands language when written down. With imaginative art and experimental narratives, Varela and Agrimbau play with the limitations of comic storytelling and push their characters to the brink of madness.
