Character Agglomeration for How Manga Took Over the World
Jon had a large character doodle entitled Character Agglomeration in the How Manga Took Over the World exhibit at Urbis.
The exhibition explored Manga’s influence in shaping contemporary culture, with something for everyone, from kids to adults; it offers a whistle stop introduction to Manga for novices as well as plenty to keep hard core fans immersed. Visitors will discover Cute Manga, Action Manga, Manga in Art, Fashion and Design, Manga as communication and Erotic Manga – for over 18s only!
Jon’s print was likely among the Cute Manga, with films by Studio Ghibli and figures and plushes by TADO. Andy of the Hide Your Arms blog went to the show and took some good shots of the work, like this one below…

Andy from HYA here, it was a good show, well worth visiting, not sure if I was allowed to take pictures, but I don’t think it hurt anyone!
