description | Writing about itself does not necessarily come with a strong concern for the representation of itself: self-portrait remains, in general, relatively dispassionate or disembodied. One may wonder if comics, traditionally an art of the character, is open to portraiture and therefore to self-portrait. To allow the reader to recognize it, isn’t it imperative that the character’s face matches first to itself? And doesn’t the art of drawing disappear in front of that compelling objectification? Hovewer, some authors open rich narrative ways by exacerbating this tension between the portrait and the character: constantly updating and renewing the distance between the artist and his model, they define portraiting as an unstable and creative process. |
