Cartoonist Cathy Wilcox once said that cartooning is an art form crying out for attention.

The domain of attention seekers who, when they were young, were the kind of kids to foist their drawings in their parents' faces, for approval.

Maybe so, but during Wilcox’s many years of drawing cartoons for The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, she’s also been our conscience. She’s made us do double takes about some of the most vexed, and perplexing issues of our time. Like discrimination, and violence against women.

Today, Cathy Wilcox, on how she's used cartooning to help navigate the last couple of fraught years. And which cartoon led people to call her a “bully”.
