Visual storytelling is a skill for the 21st century. It is a magical triad of practises that are inherent in all of us as humans. Connecting dots, sharing stories and making pictures. For thousands of years these have been the practises we’ve used to understand ourselves, interact with others and make sense of the world around us. Visual storytelling is the place where these three practises intersect. And it is becoming increasingly valued in our workplaces, our study and our every day lives as increasing technology and AI drives us to find ways to stay connected as humans.
