Jamming is an imaginary trip to the motorways of 90s Europe, created by Hamburg-based art director, designer, and illustrator, Sebastian König. The book draws inspiration from several journeys to the south – sitting in the back seat – while being stuck. The picture stories take place between stopped cars on the lane, on side stripes, or at rest stops. Besides the most obvious topic in a book about traffic jams – the passing of time – the publication contains various picture stories and short comics that show humorous events taking place on the road.
The included illustrations are typical of Sebastian’s signature colourful and edgy aesthetic, which is defined by a rough papercut-like vector style, grainy textures, and well picked colour compositions.
The 64-page book is published by Stolen Books from Lissabon and contains illustrations, comics, and other picture stories. Jamming has a soft cover and is printed on Coral Book Natural 120grs.
