Dear
you,
Since
2002, we have been making zines to share with you. What began
as a cut, fold and staple affair has since grown to become something
altogether more elaborate, something more akin to our artists’
books. Today, what we refer to as a zine straddles with ease the
space between zine and artists’ book by way of small publication.
Call them what you will, we ask only that you derive some joy
from them.
Today, we have two new zines to add to the lineup that steadily
grows year by year: Quadrupeds
drawn from London's Natural History Museum collection
and There,
a moment held.

This zine features the African elephant named George who resided
in the main hall of the Natural History Museum in the years prior
to the Diplodocus; Johnston's okapi on display in 1901; a tiger
from the Game Animals of the Empire exhibition of 1932; a lion
in a damaged cabinet after the 1944 bombings; a rabbit frequently
sketched by schoolchildren in the Children's Centre, 1949.
THERE, A MOMENT HELD.

This zine features twelve new postcard collages with random ephemera
pages dispersed throughout. With a yellow cover and yellow card
spine, it features the collages And
so it would seem, not all the best hiding places were taken
and With
tail to catch the moon should it fall, to name but two.
YIP! YIP! YIP!
Of related news, we are delighted, utterly so, that several of
our smaller artists' books and zines are now in the artists'
book collection of the Tate (UK)!
Be well,
Gracia
& Louise
