Nicole Claveloux, La Main Verte (1978)

 


La Main Verte by Nicole Claveloux (1978).

A groundbreaking psychedelic collection of existentialist stories.

The Critics: "Claveloux's pen hatching is fulsome, gathering modeled presence on the paper; her colors are bright, clashing gouache, layered in separate blotches, often defining form through a secondary, contourless outlines. Backgrounds are frequently sprayed on in gradients with airbrush. These hand-fashioned transitions lend to her horizons a kind of psychic intensity that reminds the reader of that these are internal projections." --Matthias Wivel, "The Green Hand and Other Stories," The Comics Journal, 2017.
