GUESTS
JULES SCHEELE
Jules Scheele is a freelance illustrator, comics artist and live scribe based in Glasgow, Scotland. He specialise in graphic storytelling that translates and brings a human touch to difficult concepts, especially across academic and third sector projects. He has made zines and organised events, anthologies, and distros around the DIY scene for almost 20 years. His published work includes a trilogy of graphic guides written by Dr. Meg-John Barker (Queer: A Graphic History, with follow-ups Gender: A Graphic Guide and Sexuality: A Graphic Guide), and he has also contributed illustrations to Drag Race UK Season Two’s runner-up Bimini’s autobiography, Release The Beast. His debut graphic novel, an adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s seminal gender-bending novel Orlando, came out in June 2026 through Avery Hill Publishing. https://julesscheele.com/https://www.instagram.com/julesscheele/
JOANNA BLÉMONT
Joanna Blémont is an illustrator and artist based in Edinburgh, UK. She studied Fine Drawing at La Cambre in Brussels and completed an MA in Illustration at ECA in Edinburgh. Through quiet watercolours, she explores the space between the familiar and the strange. Her partially figurative images subtract specific details, allowing the work to move beyond fixed contexts and invite a collective gaze. In 2024, she developed a riso-printed zine titled Comatose which explores the transition between wakefulness and sleep. This project allowed her to explore narrative beyond her usual use of sequence in single illustrations and was an opportunity to get back to pencil and explore mark-making within her practice. She has created work for The New Yorker, Elastic Magazine and The Baffler. She was the lead illustrator and designer for Loewe’s 180th animated film.https://arte.bio/joanna-blemont/https://www.instagram.com/joannablemont/
