I’m running a drop in zine making workshop for young people as part of my artist residency at The Playground next week, so I bought some newspapers last week to make an example zine to show at the workshop. This is the result so far! These collages will be made into the zine (hopefully).

The above collage is a poem called “What Happens Next?”

This collage is called “Jacob Memes Mogg, or We Won’t Take This Lying Down”

This one is called “Cheeky Homophobia”

And finally the “Nigel Farage Poem” (not the most creative title but it does what it says on the tin!)

I think given the current political climate this is an apt piece of work, and the zine will possibly called “Dangerous Men” or something along those lines, because although these men are often the subject of memes and jokes they are in fact very dangerous men. I’m actually really pleased with these so far, it was my first chance to be properly creative in a few weeks and I knocked these out in a couple of hours! Life is stressful after uni, but it’s moments of creativity like this that make it worth it.
