In August 2025 we launched a collaborative zine publication titled Artists’ lo-fi, DIY and Alternative Publications in South Africa. Maaike and I curated the project and the unique publication was produced as a series of Risograph-printed zines in a limited edition of 100. We hosted the publication launch at Open Window’s NOW Gallery on 2 August 2025. It was a mammoth task made possible by an incredible team. Find out more about the project here.
