'Oh My Zine!' Exhibition at The Bowery Gallery

I have some work in the exhibition 'Oh My Zine!' at The Bowery Gallery in Leeds. There are more details on the exhibition which runs until 21st June here....https://www.thebowery.org/gallery.html

The exhibition features work from a new book/zine I have published in collaboration with my friend artist and writer Clara Heathcock called 'Perforated Eardrum'. This is being launched proper in the next couple of weeks so lots more information to come on that.

In brief 'Perforated Eardrum' recounts the few weeks after Clara burst her eardrum and was unable to listen to music and is about the experience and feelings around music refracted through the experience of not being able to listen to it.

Each chapter is illustrated by myself and references a particular song or artist in response to Claras text. The pics below reference Amy Winehouse, the Wire song 'Outdoor Miner' and the band Moldy Peaches.

'Oh My Zine!' aims to create awareness and encourage engagement with zines and zine culture. You can see the pics below as well as a few others at the gallery.  Prints are available for sale in the gallery shop as well as the first few copies of 'Perforated Eardrum'
