In this creator chat Laura J. Carroll discusses her first graphic novel: Making the Shrine.

Laura is a writer and visual artist living in Naarm (Melbourne). She's also a proud unionist and the extended covid lockdowns brought her back to drawing. Three years later she has published a graphic novel that explores the making of the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne and stories around it. It's a tender and funny graphic novel exploring the soul of a Melbourne's most treasured monument.

Laura received an Arts Grant from the City of Melbourne that helped in the development of the graphic novel.

She joins committee member Luke Darlington in conversation.
