Wen Ling, One Day in My Life

The product of a rigorous Central Academy training, Wen Ling ultimately chose to work in the more pure and direct format of manga. In One Day in My Life he depicts an ordinary day of his life in excruciating detail, enlarging the subjective experience of each detail to the point where the quotidian takes on an air of the epic.
