horizontals from “somewhere Great and Big”, my first self-published zine! On sale for $12 a copy, dm for more info accompanied poetry by @alex.gast made on a road trip through 14 states and thousands of miles from august through october 2024. 1 - Portland, OR 2 - Highway 24, UT 3 - Big Sur, CA 4 - Cascade Locks, OR 5 - Highway 15, NV i was confused with what i wanted and wanted to look at everything and meet everyone and live as hard as i could. i felt constantly small and thought being somewhere else could make me feel bigger, like i was on an adventure, maybe find some purpose in life. it didn’t, but i realized i wasn’t the only one in search of a purpose, but it did look different for everybody. was anyone really sure of what they were doing or are we all just pretending? was anyone not always scared about the future? is there anything worse than loneliness? what does it look like to feel small? more images to come! and thanks to all who housed me and all the amazing people i met❤️ it really was an adventure

scans from “a breath of fresh air” - 6x9 photo zine, 10 copies printed Photographs from summer ‘25, another summer spent at work, thinking about playing outside. So, I made this zine appreciating time spent outside, big breaths of fresh air and the quiet wind, the people around me i love, and not overcomplicating it all. Only a few copies available, dm if you’d like one!
