2014 Storytellers (FLIPPINGBOOK)

Adonna Khare’s large-scale pencil drawings feature animal protagonists in whimsical scenes that first call to mind common fables and morality tales; but her references are in fact much more personal. Facing an impending storm and often bearing the scars of previous struggles, the anthropomorphic figures gather as members of a supportive tight-knit community, seeming to both celebrate together while comforting one another. In fact, many of the figures represent friends and family of the artist, and this very personal visual journal chronicles the dynamic cycles of life in all its struggles and its triumphs.
