For a book binding workshop I designed and printed a zine of images from University Of Leeds campus. Printed on Riso printer, why did I expend this much effort?

With a book binding workshop in a few weeks I set out to create something that I can bind together and result in something that I might be able to use.

We were given a task to look at works by four authors/photographers and choose one to discuss regarding the ethics involved in the photos included in the volume..

After looking into the photo journalism work of Kevin Carter, Bruce gilden’s book Only God Can Judge Me and Case History by Boris Michailov I chose the option to discuss Richard Billingham’s book, Ray’s A Laugh

Tuesday Night Print Club saw us look into the magical world of Silk Screen Printing. Laura showed us around the Screen Printing area and helped us make sense of the overwhelming nature of everything in there. We were introduced to the equipment, processes, waste handling and just how messy it can get.

This Friday saw us first hit up the web resources for some Research on our year long project and essays, then a trip to the Print Hub to learn about Riso Printing and finally a great chat with my Academic Coach Lauren. A busy day!!

At the end of last year, Alice gave us a task to create an A3 size board containing references, text, quotes and examples of images that we were interested in related to our year-long project.

My year long project so far has been a proper mixed bag, some print destruction, some negative distressing, some architecture, some portraiture so I put three boards together using my computer and PowerPoint along with the graphics table so I could scrawl directly onto the digital page.
