Illustration and Heritage delves into the revival of forgotten, lost, and unseen narratives through illustrative practice, while also exploring the potential significance of contemporary illustration in cultural heritage. Heritage is an ongoing and dynamic process that unfolds in the present. Within the realm of heritage, there exist contrasting viewpoints and positions, and illustrators play a vital role as a critical voice within this field. By grounding discussions in fundamental concepts associated with illustrators, the book examines how the historical voice can be "found or reconstructed." Rachel Emily Taylor employs her own work and the projects of other illustrators as case studies to explore how the creation of artistic work, through the exploration of archival materials and experimental fieldwork, serves as a crucial investigative process and engagement strategy when working with heritage.
The book explores the similarities and functions of heritage and illustration, shedding light on how illustrators can give voice to historical figures, disrupt archives and museums, represent historical landscapes and sites, and contribute to the expanding field of illustration research that focuses on its role in heritage practice.
Taylor situates the illustrators role within the broader context of museology, anthropology, archaeology, performance, and fine art, highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of the field. By examining the illustrators' contributions and positioning them alongside these disciplines, Illustration and Heritage provides a comprehensive understanding of the role of illustration in preserving and interpreting cultural heritage.
