Last year the wonderful @pustakapias asked @smallfrycollective to collaborate with them on a very interesting project. We were thrilled to be asked to work with them and bring together illustrators from the UK & Indonesia. This cross-community collaboration between two countries is made possible by the support of the @britishcouncil program, Connections Through Culture fund.

We're pleased to present our collaboration project book titled “A Spoonful of Sugar in Your Cup of Tea: Questions on Colonialism & Discrimination in Five Acts”.

There will be a book Pre-Launch Event, Reading & Discussion that will be conducted in English & Sign Language Via Zoom.

✏️ Poster illustrated by myself, showcasing various traditions across the UK & Indonesia
