Bio
Bio
She grew up in Sørreisa and Trondheim, and is currently living in Oslo. She is educated as a graphic designer. Siri Petersen's first work was the Anti-Klimaks comics series. Anti-Klimaks is about a group of youngsters who are generally against everyone and everything. They defy modern society and look forward to change. However, most of the time they quarrel among themselves, so it is hard for them to do anything about the reality they live in. As the author has put it: This is a series for those who want a different world. Anti-Klimaks was the winner of Bladkompaniets Publishing House Competition in 2002, and as a result, it appeared in the magazine Larsons Gale Verden in No 5/2003-2/2004. In 2004, the album entitled Heller mot enn for! (Rather against than for!) was published by Seriehuset Publishing House. In 2004 Siri Petersen won the Sproing Award for the best debut. She is also the author of Kråkene (The crows). Kråkene is a silent comic.
