My name is Elin Hjulström Lord and I love stories. Be it movies, books or the story behind a single illustration. But most of all I love comics. So whenever I can find the time I dive into my own comics projects, often in the shape of wordless, poetic stories featuring the cute character (of unknown species) named Ipp.

“The Wasteland was a peculiar place. At first glance you might take it for an ordinary landscape covered in a greenish fog. But as you approach the trees turn to skeletons of old machinery, ponds to oil spill and islands to vast heaps of waste.
I called it home nonetheless.”
