Printing

This was a class project where students were asked to make a zine that represented themselves. I chose to make a zine that discussed my experience growing up and moving every 3 years or so. I chose to dedicate spreads to each of the signficiant places I lived, creating collages of the most important memories from these places.

A zine cover split in two: oversized cream letters spelling “KEEP UP” with long drop shadows on the left, and a grainy orange and red halftone landscape on the right overprinted with the letters “HOMI”.
A spread headed “PORTLAND” and “DON’T GET ATTACHED”, collaging photographs of a bedroom, a desk and a mountain in green, orange and red duotone.
A spread headed “CHICAGO” and “INVITE STRANGERS TO YOUR BIRTHDAY”, collaging a bunk-bed room and a photograph of a person behind a row of candlelit cupcakes, in deep red and blue duotone.
A spread headed “LONDON” and “FALL OUT OF TOUCH”, collaging terraced building façades and a reaching hand in cream, red and brown.
A spread headed “NEW JERSEY” and “DECORATE YOUR ROOM”, collaging street and interior photographs in clashing orange and blue duotone.
