CHiNesE SwEAtSHoP | Chinese SketchBook | One Shot ZinesWhat are ZINES anyway? Zines are pronounced like magaZines just without the 'maga'. My simplified answer for you after digesting five hundred and fifty two different definitions available everywhere is: "Zines are self-published, handmade magaZines. They are created for the love of creating them rather than for profit." Check out the FAQ section to learn more about Zine! Concentrated description of how ZINES are created in Chinese Sweatshop Remember the Chinese girl who's obsessed with papers? She had this idea of creating newsletters for friends and family in Hong Kong soon after moving to the States. She really should have printed the newsletters on papers but instead, she did it in her head only! So now, she writes down whatever she has to share on napkins, envelopes, notebooks or computer. And she arranges the writing in nice layouts accompanying with artworks and whatever that goes. Then she prints and edition and present them in her very own artsy way. This whole process is very similar to sweatshop activities if not the same. |
