What's a zine?

Creativity & the printed output

A zine (pronounced zeen) is a small circulation, self published printed publication of any sort and on any subject, often created by hand, by photocopying or by using digital tools. 

Historically created by politically radical individuals and collectives to share ideas or interests deemed unfit to be published by more traditional mainstream outlets, zines are now made by anyone for any reason.

Zines have a DIY ethos and independent spirit and often consist of a mixture of text and images.

Experimentation and innovation are important aspects of my work, and these I feel fit well into the playful creative spirit of zine making.

Along the way

A photo zine of 32 pages, including cover, measuring 19 x 23 cm, printed on 170 gsm silk paper throughout.

The photo zine contains a series of black & white images made during a number of walks around Eastbourne and the South Downs National Park, East Sussex, UK in 2023. 

Images were captured with a Pentax MX 50mm f1.7 camera using different brands of 400 ISO black and white film. The films were developed and scanned by various photo labs.
