Artist Siddharth Nair aka asiddababa Turns His Simmering Disillusionment into This Darkly Funny, Biting Visual Satire!
A beautifully illustrated comic book for anyone who has ever found meaning overrated but thinks it s worth looking for anyway.
WILD ANIMALS. CIVILIZED PROBLEMS.
Gorgeous sumi-e ink washes bleed into stark white space in Existential Ants, a comic book where animals grapple with what makes us human. Beneath delicate brushstrokes and biting wit runs a current of existential unease ants obsess over purpose, cats interrogate destiny with skepticism, penguins barter intimacy against the void and crows dismantle common romanticism with inconvenient, razor-sharp truths.
Marrying breathtaking artwork with humour and honesty, this book offers the companionship of creatures who suspect that meaning is fragile and elusive, but perhaps still worth the trouble of finding.
The perfect gift for the overthinker, the art lover and everyone who laughs to keep the void at bay. Ideal for friends and foes alike!
SIDDHARTH NAIR is an ink and watercolour artist. Raised in India, Singapore, and China, he spent eighteen years as a corporate lawyer, and taught at law schools, before leaving practice to pursue art full time. In his spare time, he falls out of headstands, loses at racket sports, and tortures an acoustic guitar.
