"You never know what you're gonna step in next." With these words scrawled across the bottom of the page Leomi Sadler sets their stall out for their thrilling collection of short comics work, Tummy Bugs. Set across fantastical and distorted natural landscapes, Sadler weaves obscure snapshot narratives that attract and repulse the reader in equal measure. Frequently dealing in fantasy, science fiction and the world of nature, with characters that are fluid, naive and absurd, Sadler's comics are elliptical and thought provoking. The characters are as elusive as Sadler's art style, moving rapidly from revelation to damnation on the same page. Sadler moves through prose, painting, watercolour and pen and ink, their characters and worlds blending into a Kafkaesque distortion as assumed "reality" is replaced and reborn. Leomi Sadler occupies a completely unique space in comics, existing at the intersection of cartooning, street art, graffiti and high fashion. Sadler's art style more frequently recalls the frenetic energy of Jean-Michel Basquiat than other contemporary cartoonists. Collecting Leomi Sadler's energetic work for the first time, Tummy Bugs serves as both an introduction and a retrospective to Sadler's deeply personal and exciting cartooning voice.
