AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A collection of Shaun Tan’s artwork from the past 25 years.

'The drawings and paintings in the book come from his'work in picture books and other works including films and graphic novels. Others were created for no specific purpose beyond the desire to see what something looks like, or just to follow a sketched line to see where it goes. Many works are previously unpublished. As the title suggests the collection and accompanying essays by Shaun explore his use of non-human creatures as a motif throughout his artwork. (Publication summary)
