“Why did the war happen?”

Tell me the story #02


The concept:I am bored. Every story I read is always the same version of that story, every time I read it. I want the reader to become the main storyteller, and me, the author, to act as a middleman between the creation of the narrative space where the story happens, and the moment where you, the storyteller, tell the story you imagine.


So I created the book series: “Tell me the story”.


“Tell me the story” is a series of stories that focus on the storyteller's own imagination, improvisation, skill to interpret each drawing and his/her ability to connect each illustration of each drawing together with the overall story. It's the classic picture book concept, but not only for children and without a specific story in mind from the author´s side. Freedom to the reader - the true storyteller.

The story should never be “read” alone, but told to another person. You will quickly find, that every storyteller imagine his/her own and unique version of the story.


Each story is created in one session without breaks.

I never “undo” a line.I never have an idea of what I draw before drawing. 

I let my hand surprise me.

There is no right or wrong answers as to what a drawing might illustrate or what the morale of each story is.
