Title: Unholy Shapes
Description: Annie, a dissociative trans artist in her late 20s, draws and writes about her own life, juxtaposed with the life of the Austrian Expressionist artist Egon Schiele. Annie trips on mushrooms, has awkward Craiglist sex, and makes art while thinking about the similarities and differences between herself and Schiele. The black-and-white minicomic discusses themes of sex, death, fame, and the body, and contains reproductions of art by Schiele and Gustave Klimt. There is discussion of childhood sexual abuse, as well as how the label of "genius" on artists excuses responsibility for abuse. The zine includes a bibliography.
Subjects: Biography, Comic books, strips
People: Egon Schiele (1890-1918)
