biography

In the childhood of Asterix , Mickey Mouse and Yoko Tsuno , later influenced in Italy by Dylan Dog and Corto Maltese , Burrini began her career as a comic artist after graduating from high school in 1999, and presented her portfolio to the Comic Action and the Cologne Comic Days and published her first work in the Cologne fanzine Cosmix .

Comic book

Life is not a pony farm

The comic strip, awarded with the Sondermann 2012 in the webcomic category and with the Max and Moritz Prize 2018 for the best German-language comic strip, is currently her most extensive and best-known work.

Astrum Noctis

At the beginning of 2009, Sarah Burrini's cousin Eva Fairy began to work out the script after developing a story together as a 22-page project under the working title "Lightning", while Burrini was making the first sketches. On September 19, 2011, while uploading the current Ponyhof strip , Burrini announced that she would only be able to publish a new comic on her site once a week for the next three months (in the end it was only eight weeks). The reason was that Astrum Noctis had found an Italian publisher in La Lepre and the deadline required more time for it. Instead, on Thursday, readers were presented with insights into the creation process of Astrum Noctis (later older works such as Silly & Cone ). These include details such as that the character design of the protagonist is based on the young Winona Ryder , but also more detailed information on research and design of the abbey.

In the meantime, the comic had expanded considerably and was divided into two complete stories of 40 pages each by Eva Fairy, of which only the first part of the first album was done by Burrini and the second by the Italian artist Ambra Colombani. The Italian edition appeared in May 2012, the German followed in July 2013.

Content : In a medieval abbey in Switzerland that houses an elite boarding school, the student Florence Lenoir tracks down the secret cult of an undead abbess.

  • Bagger Bugger Bash (2005): This seven-page treatise on courtship rituals is possibly Sarah Burrini's first autobiographical comic, as the main character identifies himself as a “half-Italian” (Burrini's father is Italian).
