A gentle reminder, gentle reader


Before I pack them away in readiness for tomorrow's stint at TONERPALOOZA II ZINE FAIR, here is an inside view of each of the three mini-zines I'll be unveiling on day two of this auspicious event. (Click on image to enlarge).

As mentioned in our previous post, Her own Society, Alabaster Chambers and Who are You? take partial inspiration from the poetry of Emily Dickinson and they each include one of her poems. The zines are signed and numbered limited editions of 100.

Co-hosted by Sticky Institute and the State Library of Victoria, TONERPALOOZA II, which showcases zines from over 100 stall holders evenly divided between the two days, is situated in the Cowen Gallery, State Library of Victoria and will run from Saturday 23 - Sunday 24 September between 10 am - 4 pm.

I'll be there tomorrow with a plethora of Moth Woman Press publications old and new and hope to see you there too.

Three zines for TONERPALOOZA II

Previewed below are a trio of mini-zines I'll be launching this coming Sunday at TONERPALOOZA II ZINE FAIR at the State Library of Victoria. (See also Blog Post, Friday, September 8).

Curated by Sticky Institute to correspond with the current show, SELF-MADE: ZINES AND ARTIST BOOKS, the event will be held in the Cowen Gallery, State Library of Victoria, on Saturday 23 - Sunday 24 September from 10 am - 4 pm. We'll be there with our brand new zines - and a goodly selection of earlier Moth Woman Press zines besides - on Sunday 24th.

Pictured from top: Her own Society, Who are You? and Alabaster Chambers. Inspired in part by the poetry of Emily Dickinson, each zine incorporates one of her poems. To see inside, come along to the zine fair on Sunday. 

For the benefit of those who can't make it, I'll be posting some inside views in the very near future.

All three zines are signed, numbered and limited to an edition of 100.

TONERPALOOZA ll ZINE FAIR

Poster by Rachel Ang

Moth Woman Press is delighted to have been invited to participate in the forthcoming Tonerpalooza II Zine Fair at the Cowen Gallery in the State Library of Victoria. The event will take place on Saturday 23 - Sunday 24 September from 10 - 4 pm. Moth Woman Press will be there on Sunday the 24th.

Tonerpalooza is coordinated by Sticky Institute to coincide with the current exhibition at the State Library of Victoria: SELF-MADE: ZINES AND ARTIST BOOKS (see previous post).

To mark the occasion, I decided to make a new mini-zine, the front cover of which is reproduced below. I've been enjoying the process so much that two other zines are also under way. The drawings I made during a recent residency at the Art Vault in Mildura are the basis for the illustrations in all three. Further details will be revealed in future posts.
