Summary:
Over the course of a
decade
, artist Alison McCreesh lived, worked, and travelled
north
of the 60th parallel. Through a combination of autobiographical stories, drawings and sketches,
Degrees
of
Separation
offers an intimate and understated glimpse of the
North
as Alison experienced it. From frigid days spent killing time while stranded in the High Arctic, to the challenges of raising a baby in a small shack with no running water, it is one young woman's personal experience of both passing through and of setting down roots. Tinged with McCreesh's characteristic blend of humour and humanity,
Degrees
of
Separation
is about the
north
and its vastness and its diversity. While the backdrop may seem foreign to many, this collection is also a universal exploration of those transformative years from young-adulthood to motherhood. It's a graphic novel navigating themes of connection and disconnect, between the
north
and the south, but also between different norths and between our different selves.
