366 FRAMES: 516 | Like ghosts

An explanation

In 2010 I decided to make a comic in 366 days. It was supposed to be an experiment, a stream of consciousness in slow motion. I made one frame almost every day, thus keeping my word. But the story didn't end there. I kept on drawing until I reached frame number 566.

A book called "566 kadrów" was published in April 2013 by W.A.B. in Poland. The UK edition of "566 Frames" was published by Borderline Press in October 2013.

This comic is inspired by anecdotes about my family. The storyline is part fiction, part real. All persons portrayed are real.

"Writing is seeing how close you can come to make it happen, that's the object of all art." William S. Burroughs
