Was machen Glühwürmchen bei Nacht?
Do fireflies glow by day?
Children book written, illustrated and designed for my BA Project, 2024.
Non-binary identity is far from being normalised in our society. Lack of representation and visibility is a major problem.
The children book starts exactly where consciousness develops, without pointing fingers.
Using the metaphor of fireflies, it takes the viewer on a process that visualises my personal experiences and feelings.
It creates a safe place by giving insight in a playful and humorous way.
„Do fireflies glow by day?“ is a book that I would have loved to have had when I was younger.
