ZINES

The class engages in a thoughtful discussion on the history of zines, with a particular focus on their connection to social justice. Emphasis is placed on understanding zines as a medium for sharing information about personally meaningful topics, distinct from fictional subjects found in books or comics

• Artists conceptualize their zine by creating a detailed sketch, dividing their paper into eight panels, and strategically planning each page

• Artists explore magazines to gather relevant source materials for their zines

• Artists bring their vision to life by drawing final images on each page, incorporating vibrant colors, and enhancing the visual narrative with magazine cutouts and other elements, resulting in a dynamic collage for each page
