Baek Heena – laureate 2020 1
Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award Pictures that amaz
e and move us Citation of the Jury ‘With exquisite feeling for materials, looks and gestures, Baek Heena’s filmic picture books stage stories about solitude and solidarity. In her evocative miniature worlds, cloud bread and sorbet moons, animals, bath fairies and people converge. Her work is a doorway to the marvellous: sensuous, dizzying and sharp.’ 6
