A Cautionary Tale: A Sugar Queen’s Journey
Marlies Pekarek
During her stay in Australia 1992–1994, Marlies Pekarek got to know the comic artist Geraldine Searles. A friendship formed and the two artists discovered that, while their pictorial language differed significantly, the choice of their motifs was very similar. The comic A Cautionary Tale takes Marlies Pekareks sugar sculpture The Sugar Queen on a journey. Geraldine Searles created an adventurous tale around the scanned-in 3D scuplture. The Sugar Queen is taken from her original context and begins a new life as a comic protagonist.
