Emma Allen interviews the New Yorker cartoonist Lars Kenseth about how to make horror funny.
—Emma Allen, New Yorker cartoon editor Do you draw with your left or right hand? Right. I’m boring. What art do you have hanging on your studio walls/above your drawing desk? Three precariously hung shelves jammed with books, art supplies, paperwork, music equipment . . . Now that I’m thinking about it, it could easily all collapse on my head, and I should do something about it. Soon. Wow, this Q might have just saved my A.
What’s your favorite New Yorker cartoon trope or cliché ? Probably desert island, because it’s so challenging to come up with an idea that hasn’t been done! However, I do have a burning passion for Minotaur cartoons. Addams has my favorite: a Minotaur posing as a guard, casually leaning against the wall of a labyrinthine museum. Hopefully, one day, if I stay in school and eat my vegetables, I will sell one.
