      • In Other Wor(l)ds

        by Mikko Metsähonkala

        In Other Wor(l)ds is a book which defies all classification. It’s not exactly a comic, nor is it an art book. It is something in between, aphoristic cartoons perhaps. Accompanied by one or two sentences of the most gnomic kind, architect Mikko Metsähonkala’s illustrations speak volumes. The images in the book are basically single-frame comics - a bit like Gary Larson’s The Far Side. Topics in Metsähonkala’s illustrations range from history and natural sciences to arts, myths, and everyday life. Humour is based on the mundane and sublime, fairy tale and the real world.
