The world today is divided between those who walk around with hundreds of books
and magazines on an e-reader, and those who still prefer to hold them by their spine.
But the count of the latter is on the wane. At the same time, there’s hunger for
independent print that feels new. The more gargantuan the mainstream becomes, the
more there is the need for alternative or counterculture voices to emerge. And one of
the key platforms that have hosted many of these voices are independent zines.
Zines are curated to reflect the creation of the eye. They can be considered as a form and
an integral part of art practice which are widely distributed. Zine culture not only shares
views of the public but also fosters innovation and community. It showcases art in an
accessible and affordable manner which has helped champion the DIY, counterculture
and personal opinion spirit.
