Ellie Hodesdon

'Three Billion Women' is a mechanical picture book about women's rights around the world. Ellie Hodesdon has managed to take horrible facts and make them viewable, through wonderful woodcut illustrations rendered in two colour prints that resemble old educational book illustrations or educational charts. In a time when everything is gratuitously and graphically over illustrated, through photography etc, it was great to see these statistics rendered in a medium that made them approachable and absorbable as information.

Oona Brown

I managed to get to Glasgow school of art degree today, and see the good eggs and bad eggs of Oona Brown. I liked her use of the expression good egg bad egg and the idea of sealing egg thieves in their own bad eggs.
