About this Event
We are thrilled to host Miraphora Mina and Eduardo Lima to celebrate the release of the MinaLima Edition of Robert Lewis Stevenson’s timeless swashbuckling tale, Treasure Island.
Lewis Stevenson’s classic adventure story comes to life as never before in this inventive edition showcasing the magical artistry of MinaLima, brimming with original illustrations including a Skeleton Island map, The Hispaniola in Bristol Harbour and a treasure chest.
Miraphora and Eduardo will delve into their artistic processes and how they approach new projects and genres, plus take a look over their publishing success story as they celebrate 25 years of their design studio.
Creating some of the most iconic visual elements in modern cinema for the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts film series, Studio MinaLima is an award-winning design studio founded by Miraphora and Eduardo. Since 2015, they have reimagined beloved tales in their MinaLima Classics series of deluxe illustrated and interactive books, including Peter Pan, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Their adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island will add an eleventh book to the collection.
