[Commlist] Cfp: Illustration & heritage: Sharing Histories to Draw Out Futures

ILLUSTRATION & HERITAGE: Sharing Histories to Draw Out Futures

On 22 and 23 November 2024, the 14th Annual International Illustration 
Research Symposium explored the role illustration plays in cultural 
heritage: /Illustration & Heritage: Sharing Histories to Draw Out Futures /

We invite submissions of full manuscripts or expressions of interest 
(300 word abstract) from those who have participated at the symposium, 
in any capacity, and from those who are inspired by the themes. Please 
consider the submission of articles, research, critical and visual 
essays based on practice-based research on the diverse ways illustration 
and heritage are connected.

Papers could address questions such as:  In what ways do contemporary 
illustrators participate in historical narratives and give voice to 
people and communities — both remembered and forgotten — through their 
work? How are historical relics, places, and events represented through 
illustrative processes? How do researchers and practitioners in heritage 
utilise the practices, research methods and processes of illustration? 
How does heritage shape the perspectives, positions, and identities of 
illustration practitioners and researchers? How is the process of 
heritage-making practised by illustrators around the world? How do 
illustrative processes — and the shared languages of categorising, 
curating, conserving, and communicating heritage— bring illustration 
into the realms of archaeology, museology, curation, and other heritage 
practices? Do illustrators who engage with heritage-making as part of 
their practice communicate and reflect what Stuart Hall described as a 
‘collective social memory’? Who should be making the images that shape 
the future histories of culture and identity? When practising 
heritage-making with or through illustration, how do we make space for 
plurality, and how do we reflect on our subjectivity?

Submissions that expand upon, replace, or transcend standard written 
academic papers are welcome.
