I hope you’re having as much fun as I am creating during the Holidays. It’s a great time to be doing things you normally wouldn’t do. I wish you all the best!
“Cut Flowers” zine in stages
It’s been about six months, working on “Cut Flowers”. A companion zine to my “Cut Women” from 2020. A small edition of ten copies. I plan on finishing this summer. It takes a long time to make because there are so many steps in producing this zine:
Taking pictures of the plants in our garden and our home
Printing and making collages, scanning collages
Book layout (InDesign)
Printing the pages
Cutting each page individually, folding
Stamping my signature
Punching holes for coptic binding
Flattening
Binding with a thread
Binding with glue
Flattening and letting dry
My collage on the cover of "Ceci n'est pas un jardin"
