Currently building an exhibition celebrating the book at the Central Station in Breda
In December, we made our newly released photobook available as raw material for a collaborative zine-making session. Participants were invited to cut, tear, glue, and assemble their own creations, with a typewriter and scanner on hand to complete the process. It was great to see everyones creations, which we assembled in a folding-zine.
