Daft, Night Trees and Lost World
11/04/2023
After
taking a 10 year hiatus from comics to study film, Ashton returned to the world
of comics in 2018 with more excitement for the medium than ever!
He
made his comics debut with the release of his zine, Lost World in 2020. This
atmospheric comic that takes you through the corridors of a dinosaur exhibit
continues to set the tone for Ashton's work. Through the sequential art form,
Ashton aims for his work to evoke a shibui sense of stillness and a sanctuary
of wonder.
