Ich habe das Bild von Phoolan Devi hier schon einmal gepostet.

Aber Illustration ist auch immer ein Prozess und es gibt tatsächlich Zeichnungen, mit denen ich hadere. Dazu gehört das Bild von Phoolan. Ich habe mit dieser nun überarbeiteten Version das Gefühl ihrer unfassbaren Geschichte gerechter zu werden.

Wenn ihr mehr über Phoolan Devi erfahren möchtet, dann schaut mal bei @starkefrauen_blog

I have posted the image of Phoolan Devi here before.

But illustration is also always a process and there are indeed drawings that I struggle with. Phoolan's image is one of them. I feel with this now revised version I have done more justice to her intangible story.

this is a cutout of a drawing for a book called „das dingsda“. the little hero who calms down the bear is a girl named emma lou.

the book „you are here and you are beautiful“ receives a little brother or in this case a big brother. the successor book takes the perspective of the older brother of emma lou and his view on his sister with down syndrome.

THE GYPSY PHARMACIST

* 21 February 1952 in Thailand

Krisana is a Professor and Pharmacist from Thailand and has worked tirelessly to make medicines affordable to even the poorest in the world.

Her effort to cut the cost of treatment for HIV, Malaria and other diseases have saved and improved countless lifes.

Sje says about her work: “I am sensitive to the suffering of people. In Thailand in those days in 1992 there were 150 000 HIV patients and only rich people can get access to treatment. So what about the rest? If you are poor you die. It’s not fair, it’s a human right.”

At that time Patients had to take three pills in the morning and three in the evening, which was expensive. So Krisana created a “3 in 1 cocktail” and developed the cheapest therapy in the world.

In 2002 she left Thailand and worked in Afrika for 12 years. She started manufacturing ARV and start from building the factory, supervising the constructions of the factory and teaching local people to manufacture ARV drugs.

“That’s why African people call me the Gypsy pharmacist because I don’t have a home. I tra- vel all the time...everywhere is my home. I will not give up, I never give up.”
