Abstract
The symposium explores active processes of heritage-making through digital, institutional, and communal archives and collections, illustrative and co-illustrative methodologies, the making and giving of a ‘voice’, understanding and communicating artefacts, and looking at architecture as a historical material, among other practices.
The 14th Illustration Research Symposium will be held at UAL’s Chelsea College of Arts and will include panels, papers, and posters by practitioners and researchers from the fields of illustration, heritage, architecture, anthropology, and more. The symposium will consider principles including inheritance, displacement, collective memory, subjectivity, and plurality. How do contemporary illustrators participate in historical narratives and give voice to people and communities — remembered, obscured, and imagined — through their work?
The symposium is curated in response to Illustration and Heritage, by Rachel Emily Taylor, published in 2024 by Bloomsbury Press. It is organised in partnership with Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration, the Association of Illustrators, and Illustration Educators.
