Good Praxis 2 - Steven Christie

Published By Glom Comics Australia

The Turtlenecks have figured out the answer to the impossible question: how do you make a living as an artist without compromising your experimental art practice? An art practice which is too radical to be monetised! Is there a way to make art without having a soul-sucking day job that drains your creative spirit? The answer is so simple, you’ll wish you thought of it first: heists.

Steven Christie is a comics maker based in Naarm, with a background in drawing, animation and video art. After graduating from RMIT University (Fine Art) he moved to Brooklyn and self published his first graphic novel Arrowheads, a brightly coloured satire of the art world. The follow up, Turtlenecks was picked up by AdHouse books and published in 2020. After returning to Australia in 2022 he made the comic Punchline Sinker, a cosmic horror set in an off-world tropical fish store, which was published in Cram #3. He is currently working on the third stand-alone installment of the Turtlenecks series, Good Praxis, to be released serially as a Glom Press Partwork.
