Raw Feels

By Leonie Brialey

Raw feels is a term used in philosophy to describe the ineffable, intrinsic, unprocessed “what it is like” of certain phenomena of life, like the smell of a rose, the pain of a headache or heartache, the pink of a sunset. Raw Feels is a book about being alive, being depressed, keeping going, trying again and again and drawing.

"I don't know how [Leonie] made such a profound beautiful book. Such simple little drawings. So effortless, like a soul that forgot to complicate things. And weaving hands and lines and waves and tears and so much sadness and humor. How can that book about sadness and depression and loneliness be so funny? My god, it's my favorite book, I just don't know how you land so lightly, but touch all the important parts. Thank you so much for this magnificent book."
