StoryLines features an extensive retrospective of her sketches, original drawings from her graphic novels, and digital 2D-animations. It also zooms in on her journalistic projects in refugee camps and her latest graphic novel, an adaptation of ‘Lord of the Flies’.

Rotterdam-based Aimée de Jongh is one of the greatest talents in the world of international comics. Her books have been translated in numerous languages and are read the world over. She has been nominated for, and received a number of very prestigious awards in Japan, the United States, France, and the Netherlands. By exploring themes like migration, history and human relationships, De Jongh confronts her readers with social dilemmas.
