GOOD EVENING, GOOD EVENING. SO NICE OF YOU TO COME ALL THIS WAY.
A small zine by Gracia Haby

Edition of 60
October, 2008

A
15cm X 10.5cm, 32 page colour and B&W zine with a bright red cover card and cardboard back, with a glued spine.

Expect within the pages of this zine to receive a little love with your cabbage roll, to comb the lawns of Killarney in Ireland, to brake a few roof tiles in Stockholm and discover blue skies in Germany.


Collage on postcard and photograph, 2008. Titles of works as they appear.
Making a circle, almost.
Seeking treasure in New Mexico.
Where did you spring from?
At first all was not clear.
All were in attendance.
Looking for a way in.
When in doubt it often helps to start at the beginning. (I)
When in doubt it often helps to start at the beginning. (II)
Like so?
A fine balancing act. (II)
More unruly than I had hoped.
We may not be able to see the moon from here but we know it
hangs high above.
Moving forward ought to seem like the easiest thing but today
was proving the opposite.
Searching for a way out.
Looking for delicacies in Lebanon.
Mind how you go in the capital.
A fine balancing act. (I)
Is this it?
How about this?
Or this?
Mind how you scamper.
Feeling gigantic.
Yes, that’s it.
