In Illustoria's past & future Issue takes us on a mind-bending journey through time and space!
Learn about ancient worms found in an iceberg and brought back to life. Is time travel possible? We asked a poet-engineer to tell us. In our comics section, Dora the Cat tries out for a job as an archaeologist, and Dog Chef delivers a fruit salad snack that any dodo bird would crave! Diego Romero joins us in an interview about his work in contemporary ceramics rooted in indigenous traditions. Young writers and artists submit drawings about robots and tales of futuristic interstellar pen pals! And as always, enjoy music, art supplies, and book recommendations. What are you waiting for?
Hop in your favorite figurative mode of transportation (spaceship, hovercraft, or zeppelin, anyone?) and join us on this wild adventure!
