Comics


Ina van Zyl started to make comics for Bitterkomix in 1992. She was still a student then, but these comics mark the starting point of her career as an artist. After moving to Amsterdam in 1996, she dedicated herself to painting, although a comic still occasionally appears from her hand. Besides paintings, Fly on the Wall presents all of her comics from 1992 until 2000, accompanied by an introductory text by Dominic van den Boogerd.
