Leo Quievreux

Future Is Now

Drawings, 2011


Quievreux’s work for the festival SURVIVAL KIT 3 will be created on the walls of the exhibition hall. It will be the author’s personal idea about the imaginary future influenced by what he has seen in Riga, read about it and seen in the news before, by phrases from reports, documents and financial reviews. All of these come together and forms a vision of future; a vision which frequently reminds one of a depressive dream. During the festival the comics magazine kuš! will publish Leo Quievreux’s visual story Future is Now.
