Cartoons that Iconify Maltese Culture
Solo Exhibition
Malta's Got Character aims to promote and iconify Maltese culture into vibrant cartoon characters. The collection was inspired by a question to see the positive in a negative phrase/song "Pajjiz Tal- Mickey Mouse" - meaning "A Mickey Mouse Country". This exploration led to a solo exhibition in June 2018.
