| book description |

Illustration and Heritage explores the re-materialisation of absent, lost, and invisible stories through illustrative practice and examines the potential role of contemporary illustration in cultural heritage. Heritage is a â€˜processâ€™ that is active and takes place in the present. In the heritage industry, there are opposing discourses and positions, and illustrators are a critical voice within the field. Grounding discussions in concepts fundamental to the illustrator, the book examines how the historical voice might be â€˜foundâ€™ or reconstructed. Rachel Emily Taylor uses her own work and other illustratorsâ€™ projects as case studies to explore how the making of creative work â€“ through the exploration of archival material and experimental fieldwork â€“ is an important investigative process and engagement strategy when working with heritage. What are the similar functions of heritage and illustration? How can an illustrator â€˜give voiceâ€™ to a historical person? How can an illustrator disrupt an archive or museum? How can an illustrator represent a historical landscape or site? This book is a contribution to the expanding field of illustration research that focusses on its position in heritage practice. Taylor examines the illustratorâ€™s role within the field, while positioning it alongside the disciplines of museology, anthropology, archaeology, performance, and fine art.
