London, Ontario-based cartoonist and multimedia artist Marc Bell has regularly published cartoons in newspapers and books since 2004. Remove, one of his fine-art collages, is a colourful, ingenious 3-D abstraction of the zany creatures, nonsense phrases and bizarre landscapes that populate his comics. Bell has been published by Drawn & Quarterly and Fantagraphics, and has shown throughout Canada, as well as at Adam Baumgold Gallery in New York and BD Spirit in Paris.
