Aero

Intentionally harsh and jagged visuals nurse soft and borderless meta commentary undertaken subliminally. smoothie of graffiti, nihilism, internal and external observation, and perspective simulation theory. these creations are made to engage independent and conscious thought/behaviour/reflections/undertakings from readers, glancers, and thinkers alike.

CDU art student collective

A contemplation on the pleasures we derive from our sense A contemplation on the pleasures we derive from our sense of touch; performance, poetry and pastels in print, a travel guide to the uprisings of the world. An eclectic collection of zines from CDU students who saw a call out for the zine fair after we all hit the submit button for our last assignment – a zine on a theme of our choice.

Cj Fraser-Bell: Fault Lines

I’ve been making and teaching zines since 2010, but I’ve only ever printed a handful of runs for the public. Come get a limited 2nd edition of Fault Lines, my full colour art and poetry zine created as Artist in Residence at the NT library in 2019, as well as some other new (and old) goodies.

Do I Seduce You? Presented by Tarzan JungleQueen

‘Do I seduce you?’ is a memoir piece that explores feminism, gender, and Tarzan’s experience as a queer-bodied human finding a voice. Sometimes there are no words or blurbs that can sum up the explosion of confusion that comes from within; the juices that need to leak out. This zine ‘Do I seduce you?’ becomes the language to an unexplainable body.

Enter Sandman // Reckless Kelly presented by Kelly Walsh

Enter Sandman is a vibrant take on the myths and realities of a space we spend a third of our lives in. A sleep scientist turned designer / illustrator, Kelly gets her kicks from the distillation of complex concepts into simple, digestable graphic forms that surprise and delight.

Femi

I love drawing and engaging with people. So my zine would focus on a how to prepare for a collaborative creative drawing exercise. It can be used as an ice breaker, within the classroom and to gain information for a specific question. Many people express themselves in lots of different ways and the zine focuses on how simple drawings can convey sometimes than the written word.

Hell & Wholesome presented by Simone Porrovechio

Bizarre, odd, surreal – anything that my mind vomits up – that’s what you get, Sailor!

Hot Rocks presented by Tom Dews

I am very new to making zines. My zines try to convey the stunning and sexy shapes, colours and textures of the NT’s landscapes, all in a neat fold-able form. My mum said she’d never heard of zines but she thought it was cool!

How Did It Come To This? Presented by Matt Cornell

“How did it come to this?” is a zine curated by Matt Cornell (and supported by Darwin Community Arts).
It platforms collaborating artists and collectives around our home region of Asia-Pacific.
Contributors unpack their current efforts to interrogate; where are we at? how did we get here? what are our hopes for the future as actioned through our response and toil and compassion?

An offering of a broader-than-national shared identity.

I will be selling editions # 1 (Print) and # 2 (Cassette).

Madona Whore Complex

Madonna whore complex zines are a retaliation to online censorship. A series of 3 smut zines made over two years. A glimpse into the artist life covering; kink, sexuality and incarceration.

Scribblings presented by Jeremy Garnett

A collections of the makings; a beginning of the tale. A thinker’s thoughts without remorse, unfinished yet fettered. Each story, each poem, begins with a spark: an instigating phrase. Yet most lightning seeds linger, written, but forgotten. Scrbblings collects such unfinished phrases, inter-dispersed with thunder realised. BYO context and storm.
