A series of endearing portraits of the older generation make up the latest online exhibition of the Malta Community of Illustrators.
Frances by Moira Zahra
Titled
Kliem ix-Xjuħ, it features 16 illustrators who reveal their love and appreciation for the elderly, especially their parents or nannas and nannus, through vividly-coloured quirky portraits or caricatures of their relatives. Each portrait is accompanied by a few sentences by the creatives, describing their illustrations and what inspired them.
As an example, Moira Zahra presents an illustration of her grandma, Frances, wearing a pair of 1950s-style blue sunglasses. Zahra describes the history behind these statement glasses, saying her grandfather bought them for his then girlfriend during a secret meet-up at the beginning of their relationship.
