Mignon Nusteling

(Dordrecht, 1991) is an artist and poet, but also known for her Instagram account @Mignonnus, where she unabashedly addresses topics such as art, autism, cyberbullying, sexuality and feminism. One of her missions is to make art accessible and she carries this out both on- and offline. In 2017 she published the illustrated collection of poems Zon- & Sodeflikstralen and in 2020 her personal city guide about Dordrecht: De Maaspiraat. She works autonomously, but also illustrates under the alias @StudioStout. The illustrations of Studio Stout are recognizable by their bright colours and black lines, and are made both freely and on commission. In 2021 she made an illustration for a poetic letter by Annemarie Ensor for the Winternachten festival programme Erfstukken (Heirlooms).

Erfstukken
With: Annemarie Estor, Babah Tarawally, Babeth Fonchie, Eva Meijer, Fleur Kotten, Jens Meijen, Jessica Bacuna, Kenneth Aidoo, Mignon Nusteling, Rachel Sender
At the request of Writers Unlimited, five authors wrote a letter to a family member of another generation asking: "What concern or fear about this time would you like to present to a family member in the past or in the future?" Five artists responded to the letters and created an unique illustration. Graphic designer Herman van Bostelen turned it into a paper gem: from leporello to postcard.
We launch the analogue issue (in Dutch only) of Inheritance with an online program. Enjoy the conversations with four authors and illustrators involved: Eva Meijer, Fleur Kotten, Babeth Fonchie and Jessica Bacuna talk about the special collaboration from our favorite bookshop in The Hague, De Vries Van Stockum.
