All the responses to Shreya Davies and Vanessa Wong’s heart-wrenching yet hopeful comic is a reminder that the hardest journeys are often the least visible, and that we can afford to hold each other a little closer.

We dive into Aime’s advocacy work on the issue of statelessness in Sabah, Bonni’s visual storytelling in the form of metaphors and unfurling panels, and how their combined choreography reminds us that all dreams are worth fighting for. Can we keep on dancing, even when the music stops?

Dance, dreams, and statelessness: creator chat with Aime and Bonni

Dance, dreams, and statelessness: creator chat with Aime and Bonni

Aime and Bonni’s “Syncopation” is a story of many rhythms – of beautifully illustrated dance sequences intertwined with nostalgic pixel art. When legal documentation issues get in the way, how are the lives of two friends forced out of synchrony?

Through her school days, where she must negotiate a precarious balancing act between her culture and fitting in, to her teenage years where appetites must be managed to keep up appearances, to her early adulthood where responsibilities feel overwhelming, Divya journeys from feelings of emptiness to finally finding fulfilment within.

"To the Last Gram" is an honest and hopeful story of feeling at odds with and finding a home in one’s community, family, and body, and of the yet-unfurling journey to embrace the fullness of life.
