llustration Research is a network of academics and practitioners with the purpose of promoting the cultural significance of illustration, and to create opportunities to share research into and through illustration.​
Our sister publication is the peer reviewed Journal of Illustration

Now out Journal of Illustration 11.2 !
Edited by dr. Jaleen Grove.
This journal presents papers resulting from the international collaboration, and artistic research project Illuminating the Non-Representable, coordinated and led by professor of illustration, Hilde Kramer. This cross disciplinary project, over a period of three years, delivered a range of symposia and projects exploring the boundaries of representation now and in the past, but also the role of illustration in breaking taboos or revealing truths. The project brought a wealth of papers resulting in Volume 11 consisting of two issues ( issue 2 out early 2025)
