Description
Try this: Explain what asexuality and aromanticism are without mentioning what they are not. What does it mean to understand ourselves through negation? “momentum” is an elaborate visual poem about finding openings in our surroundings and mirrors in our fellow queers, dreaming up futures beyond white picket fences from a semi-rural aro-ace perspective – a queer becoming.
To form a leporello-style zine, the entire visual poem was printed as one continuous band, which was then folded into pages. You can leaf through those pages like you would a book or unfold them for an uninterrupted reading flow. This zine was created in collaboration with Marieke Pras (she/her) from spouk, a queer indie designer and printmaker from Groningen.
Each order includes:
1 leporello zine (7 pages, 15 x 18.1 cm, unfolded 18.1 x 118.9 cm)
1 caption sheet with the poem in plain text (14 x 17.2 cm)
1 protective zine-wrapper
If you prefer a (more affordable) online-version of this visual poem, we got you covered. If you are interested in a print (DIN A3/29.7 x 42 cm) of any page from this zine, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
in some between applies a flexible pricing system to make things accessible for you and sustainable for me. You can choose freely between three price tiers, according to your ability and wish to support my practice (read more about this). Since this project was a collaboration, we calculated pricing together and differently than i usually would; hence, production costs are already covered at the low price, and we offer the above-mentioned digital version for a symbolic price of 50 ct as a more affordable alternative.
