Emi Illo

"I’m Emily, I’m 24 and I’m currently taking a break from my Liberal Arts course at UoN. I’m ‘majoring’ in Sociology, and I’m interested in race, gender, and climate inequalities, and how these are interconnected through colonial and capitalist histories. For the past few years I have largely been shaped by health issues, which has made it difficult to stay connected to things I’ve always enjoyed, especially art, reading, and writing. During my time off, I’ve slowly been redeveloping my love for illustration, so being this month’s cover artist was a wonderful opportunity for me. "
