Ana Luiza Marigo is an artistic chameleon of Brazilian origin, involved in many fields throughout her life. Trained as an urban planning architect, she specialized in the valorization of Brazilian intangible heritage, particularly in urban environments. Today, she devotes her time to drawing, illustration, painting, sculpture and comics. Her first comic strip, Apocolocyntosis (from the Greek apokolokyntosis, literally meaning “transformation into a squash”) is a contemporary adaptation of a Seneca satire, transposed to the Brazilian context. In this graphic novel, she and her coauthor explore current themes such as the environmental crisis and the ethnocide of indigenous peoples. Marigo is currently working on fanzines, as well as on her next graphic novel, Oiseaux Migrateurs.
