Projects

Improvisation 190220

Role: Publisher/Designer/Printer

IMPROVISATION N. 190220 is a limited edition zine by Miki Lowe produced in collaboration with Sonriso Studio. Created and printed over a single day, the zine is the result of an intuitive and spontaneous process between the artist and the risograph printer.

The publication is an eclectic, playful and poetic collection of photographs, drawings and textures by Miki Lowe.

Like a piece of improvised theatre, the project is about the process itself: a playful negociation between improvisation, what can be created on the spur of the moment and the possibilities and peculiarities of risograph printing.
