Corebooks

An admirable and attractive production which raises awareness of, and will provoke discussion about, a human rights agenda agreed internationally as one all people should aim to live by. Illustrators from a range of countries and cultures have interpreted this in diverse ways. The tortured doll drawn by Jane Ray is a real revelation to those familiar with her stunning stylised fairy tale illustrations, while Jessica Souhami’s carefully composed collage picture expresses the importance of openness and equality concerning religious belief.
