Learn what it takes to make a zine and create your own with a screen printed cover with OOMK Zine.
This workshop explores the growing mistrust of mainstream news by exploring and subverting formal newspaper conventions and using a cut and paste approach employing more DIY style zine formats to convey information.
In this workshop you will be encouraged to interrogate ideas surrounding ‘the truth’.
You'll be presented with a range of printed articles and statistics from different sources exploring the themes beauty, the environment and conflict. You will select one story and through a series of activities will be prompted to re-communicate this knowledge using your own creativity and imagination.
