Episode 4: The Mastery of Craft and the Healing Expression of Art
Mohammed (Momo) Al Shaibani is a comic artist from the United Arab Emirates. He earned an MFA in sequential art (comics) from Savannah College of Art and Design. Momo discusses the art scene in the UAE, the importance of craft, and the marriage of illustration and story-telling that comics demand.
