Adam Saragoussi – La Soupe
by Adam Saragoussi
How can new narrative mechanics emerge in comics? La Soupe follows the surreal journey of Clarence and Ludwig in their quest toward the Nucleus of the world. Although they share the same pages, the two characters evolve within distinct parallel realities, each associated with a different printing layer. Developed as a space for narrative exploration, the project investigates the possibilities offered by the coexistence of multiple stories and multiple levels of reading within a single page. The images, combining hand-drawn elements with 3D-set designs, build a universe oscillating between science fiction and dreamlike imagery. Entirely printed in risograph, La Soupe deploys various narrative devices in which realities intersect, contaminate one another, and evolve throughout the story.
