Serendip: the origin of Serendipity, meaning Fortuitous discovery. Serendip zine is an independently published Arts magazine with a focus on creating community and connecting creatives 💙✨ April artist feature: @patchwork.nat Model: @desstiiineee Photographer @dog.bit3 When we only commodify art, leave it to the capitalist, it’s like placing a price on airflow. Human creation is essential. In a time where the gap to access art and create it is widening we look to be a hand in mending it. In a time where luxury brands are hiring artists and soda companies push AI slop onto the consumer, creating a standard where the rich are worthy of hand-drawn human art and the poor deserve what’s been stolen from real artists, and regenerated into something uncanny, We are here to remind you: ART IS FOR ALL! It belongs to the fingertips, and the heart beats, the irises and the goosebumps, the shaky breath and the eardrums. Whatever way you experience art, creation belongs to us, not the machines or the man with money behind the curtain. We are here to remind you not to accept that you are less deserving of genuine reality just cause you can’t pay the price tag. Each month we highlight a new artist, giving small artists the chance for a spotlight. Each issue is a collaborative process with the artist, coming out a little different each time depending on the vision. Every issue will come with a 3in button exclusive to the first press of the magazine, signed artwork from that month's artist (CD’s, Prints, Ceramics, Stickers, Apparel, and more!) and a variety of content from activities you can cut out, games, news, photoshoots, comics, an AD space where anyone can take out a free slot (advertise your band, look for advice, share your talent, publish a bad poem, promote your event, anything). Contact @serendipzine on Instagram to take out a space! All profits from the magazine are split 50/50 with that month’s artist. All support is appreciated so we can pay our creatives for their work and keep expanding Serendip to support creatives at any stage in their career. We offer sliding scale prices with the hope to open access to our magazine to as many people as possible.
