How Lily Kong’s paintings of nature offer “a collective memory of sharing a space”

Illustrator and artist Lily Kong joined London’s Nicer Tuesdays stage in July once again to infect the audience with her typically optimistic outlook on art and design – in her own words, illustration is great at “bringing lightness to talking about seriously saddening problems”. Lily’s talk details how illustration practices can be used as forms of self-discovery through research, connecting with nature, practice and experimentation.
