A Graphic novel like never seen before, published by Charta, fall 2009.

Oreet Ashery is from Israel and lives in London. Larissa Sansour is from Palestine and lives in Copenhagen. These two artists have created a very special graphic novel, that raises questions on artistic agency, collaborative processes, the nature of authority  and art and politics, and offers an eye-opening take on Palestine. Although humorous in its approach, the book poses uncomfortable and rigorous questions. All this assumes particular importance considering that these artists come from both sides of the region’s divide. Nonel and Vovel, the artists’ alter egos, are given superpowers compromising their creativity; with their new powers and help of local ninja women, they strive to save Palestine. The Novel of Nonel and Vovel presents a bold mixture of art, politics, games, sci-fi, storytelling and other experiments, all rattling and shaking up the most prevalent ideas, stereotypes and misconceptions of the Middle East.
