zine (‘zēn - noun.) : magazine

Zines are an ideal medium for sharing (and developing) ideas in conversation with the world around us.

I. Minizines

Printed on a single A4 page, and folded into 8 pages, minizines are one of my favourite mediums because of how easy they are to reproduce & distribute. Using a variation of digital, collage, and hand-drawn elements these minizines span in topics - from How to Do Something (be an activist); Mutual Aid with our unhoused neighbours; Meditative reminders on mental health; short recipes & book summaries.

II. SardZine

A5, 10 Pages

III. Fowl Play Zine

A6, 14 pages
A friend of mine mentioned once that they hate pigeons, and that brief interaction became my obsession. I knew there was more to the story of these detested birds, and I wanted to uncover it and spread pigeon propaganda around the world.
