Beschrijving
“Niet te stoppen” (“Unstoppable”) is a comic about my 12 year old niece’s relationship with her own scars.
I remember visiting my aunt and sitting next to my niece during brunch. She was telling me a story, and my mind began to wander as I absentmindedly looked at her arm. That’s when I noticed a cluster of scars.
At first, she shrugged when I asked about them. But when she realized I was genuinely interested, she began explaining how she got each one — animated, almost proud, like she was showing off trophies.
The way she looked at me while recounting her misadventures stuck with me.
I stopped feeling shame about my own scars and started to feel my own strange little version of pride.
If she can be proud of hers, then so can I.
