. The black humor in the database.


the Norwegian author JASON AND BLACK HUMOR.

Saeteroy

John Love, aka Jason, is the only Norwegian author who has crossed the borders of the Franco-Belgian bande dessinée. After "Chhht!" , "Des morts et des vivants" or "J'ai tue Adolf Hitler" , published with his cynical and unemotional clear line of the album "Low Moon & autres histoires" , a melancholy ode to poetry sword, stick or gun, a funny and poignant cry the suffering of existence.

Jason has the black humor of the impossible love and the dead in series. Nothing is superfluous in the world of silence and blank stares, expressions hidden, where chance has no place and absurdity pervades everything.

Is death a source of inspiration for art and humor?

In my stories there are many dead, but I have no explanation for this phenomenon. I've never seen a person die in real life. Perhaps it is the result of an obsession of my characters are types that can kill the women they love. In fact, I have no explanation for love. Simply found that both love and death can lead to good stories ...

In their stories there are many dead but little blood, as if, somehow, would kill to play ...

is very easy to use violence with the sole aim to surprise, but that does not interest me. Game of containment, with the underlying emotion. Is a latent violence that does not seek exaltation, which is much more effective because it forces the reader to imagine things. When you do not hear the cries of the victim, forcing the reader to internalize.

Do your characters never have regrets?

In "Proto film noir" , one of the episodes Low Moon, using death as a running-gag or as a nod to black cinema. But in the last story in the book "Tu es là" , speak directly with remorse, the fact that we always regret anything in life, no matter what. This is a recurring theme in my work. My first album translated into French, "Attends ..." and told the story of a boy who was ashamed of the death of his best friend.

You draw characters impassive little expressive and show no emotion. Something that reaches the reader. How do you get?

In the silent era, Buster Keaton never showed his feelings to the viewer, because the emotion is more authentic when it is born of the small details of a story, though he did not say all the reader or viewer.

Some of their stories carry this principle to a climax with speech bubbles without any text.

not something premeditated. I do a script before drawing an album. When I take the pen I realize that silence can be more expressive than words. This allows me to conceal from the reader what the characters and let them think that he fill those snacks text. I like to explain my stories, I'd rather not say anything about them, cultivate the mystery, it is to frustrate the reader, is that many times myself and I have the keys and answers!

Is sad face of his characters is a way of bringing black humor into the scripts?

I am convinced that death is something very painful that sometimes can be fun. My job is to turn death into something fun, even when she herself, is not. I think that in life there is nothing so serious that you can not laugh about it. My works systematically alternate between the serious and humorous, between reality and absurdity.

IN THE HEART OF THE ETERNAL RUSSIA. Lereculey Interview with Jérôme.


Accustomed to working with scripts by David Chauvel, begins a new partnership ...

I wanted to work with my wife Martine, put my drawings in the service of his scripts. Both were very impressed by the reading of Vij ( Viy * ) and developed the idea of \u200b\u200badapting in a fairly free Gogol's story .

Immerse in the heart of the Ukraine early, with his Cossacks and their legends. What attracts them to this universe?

eternal Russia makes us dream, like many others, with the Russia of the stories, the snowy forests, inhabited by the horrible Baba-Yaga, the kibitkas, the isbased, the Troika, the vodka. .. all mixed with the world of vampires, Vlad Dracul, the Vurdalak of Transylvania. We had fun with this fantastic vision of Eastern Europe, Egypt to Siberia, which transposed into this dark history of posthumous revenge.

What have been your graphic references?

To create this universe orthodox Gothic style, Martine and I had some very important graphic references, as the work of Ivan Bilibin , great illustrator of Russian folklore, but we also had in mind the gloomy atmosphere of the film " Ivan the Terrible "of Eisenstein and the wonderful movie" Sadko " .

Baba Yaga by Ivan Bilibin.

We are accustomed to male characters, masculine, like "Arthur" or "7 Voleurs" developed here a female character, that of a witch ...

I love that character, seductive yet terrifying. I wanted to honor him, graphically speaking, to their fellow small water sprites, to what Martin has helped me tremendously. It is very handy to have a model to look at home!


Finally, what are your next projects?

After this enriching family experience again with my colleague David Chauvel, to develop the universe we address in "7 Vouleurs" with a new fantasy story, "Le Matin des Cendres" which was published early 2010 ... To another.

LES Somnambul (Sleepwalkers)

Posted on 14-01-2009


104 pages Synopsis:

Imagine a dream where you turn is sleeping, where you start a new dream and so suddenly is in "Les Somnambul (Slaapkoppen in original). Full of strange twists, sparkling, heady, this unique epic tale follows the dream of a couple and their changes at the edge of nonsense, in the form of short chapters different from each other, where the apparent disconnect leads us to compose a mosaic consistency.

Humor, philosophy and poetry exposed through a drawing of great simplicity. "I Somnambul" won the award for best debut album in Flanders (Blikk Biebel 2008) and Holland (VPRO Debuutprijs 2008). Its success led to only six months after its publication had a second edition.

Randall Casaer

filmmaker Randall Casaer flamenco, which usually work on Belgian comic monologues, signing a splendid debut in the database. "Les Somnambul" is a story dreamers who dream which in turn are dreaming. A dreamlike environment in which the author, a great admirer of French artists and Blain Sfar, let your imagination free rein. "I once read in a Tibetan Zen treated if they are dreaming and dreaming and seven times in the dream, we reach nirvana. It was a good start for a story, he says. Then, like a puzzle, I was adding small personal follies, as the clouds turn into characters or talk only with verbs, not adjectives ". She loves to record their dreams in a notebook ( "In my dreams I fly often. It's great!" ) and according to some methods, is trained to be aware of their state when sleepwalker, and he says, "being lucid at the time of sleep can try many things would not be made with eyes open" .

Dreamers Unlimited. Interview with Randall Casaer.

was a guest of the great Flemish exhibition presented at the Festival of Angoulême, where he presented the French translation of her debut album.

In the first pages of "Somnambul" you quoted Carlos Castaneda, Patricia Garfield and Lewis Carroll, why Why?

These references provide the key to the story because the story never explicitly say a "careful, you're dreaming!" Could not do that. In a dream really no way to know whether we are in reality, that's exactly what they say, Patricia Garfield and Carlos Castaneda, we can control our dreams and become aware of the fact that we are dreaming. Just a little practice, but once we got the whole dream world is a giant amusement park where everything is possible.

Are you a dreamer?

I am artist, I love to watch, observe, watch people, yes.

The sea has an important place in his book. What if you were born to live on a deserted island, like Igor and Olav?

Or I would go mad or reach nirvana. Except if I had an internet connection, in this case could lead a normal life author of BD, working in solitude, communicating a bit, working in solitude, communicating a bit, ad infinitum ...

Is this trip a metaphor for the couple that places in history?

course, but the metaphor is extended to modern man in general, which makes their lives without fully understanding what happens and who believes that everything is perfect for so long that their perception of reality despises the important things in life. Women do not need to put as many labels, but it is an unconscious.
