Mouni Feddag's illustrations are full of witty details and considered observations

Date

The charming illustrations of Mouni Feddag are fantastically colourful and richly detailed. Full of personality with a lovely scratchy quality, these illustrations could easily drift into the twee, but it’s Mouni’s clever observations and witty nuances found within her large drawings that pull it away from the mawkish.

Born and based in Nottingham, her figures sit in crowded restaurants, stand with candy floss at a country fair and laze around in a messy bedroom, but they all seem consumed by their own stories. The thin limbs and simple faces of her characters have a wonderful movement about them as Mouni allows her figures to slouch and slump freely.
