2009
¥2,500
「2009」 Size 148x210mm 76 pages Unnumbered edition Printed with Xerox Lightweight recycled paper Saddle stiched Self Published, 2024, Tokyo Some work from 2009 Recently I started digitizing my older photo films and discovered these. Photos are quick and blurry, some negatives got affected by time, colors look funny. They were all taken during my first year in Japan, which I spent as an exchange student living in Odaiba. I photographed quite a lot to that year befriend my new home. Some of my ink drawings from that year are interlaced between the pages. 最近、古い写真フィルムをデジタル化し始めて、こんなことを発見した。 写真は早くてぼやけていて、ネガは時間の影響を受けて色がおかしくなっているものもある。 これらはすべて、留学生としてお台場に住んでいた、日本での最初の年に撮影したものだ。新しい場所を仲良くなるために、かなりたくさん写真を撮った。 zineを纏めながら、その年に描いた墨ドローイングもページの間に挟んでだ。

Getting Feet Wet
¥5,500
Getting Feet Wet Handmade book in softcover Size 205x280mm 104 pages Edition of 20 copies Photographed between 2022~2024 Photos, design and text: Viktorija Makauskaitė Binding and silkscreen support: kteam/HEADQUARTERS Kamakura Printed with Xerox Self Published, 2024, Tokyo This book contains a collection of photos of bad weather: rains, gales, dust storms, etc. All of them I took in my neighborhood park, here in Tokyo. The project was shot on film, using simple photographic techniques and only collaborating with natural forces for the special effects. I wanted to make a book that would feel quite immersive, like listening to an endless music track. A book, that would be a little bit intense but not too dramatic. It’s bout a place that seems homey and familiar as if you've been here too. You’ve seen those ducks and pigeons, and concrete fences imitating wood, brown painted light posts, and purposeless steel boxes in the ponds. There would be nothing new to discover but a change of the seasons in a flip. And you could randomly open the pages from the start, end, or at a quarter, it would not matter so much - wherever you entered, you would end up in a puddle. It is an intimate work (getting one’s feet wet) about losing oneself in a downpour and becoming a part of it.

Rescued Drawings
¥1,500
Rescued drawings. 2023 August *** For this zine, I picked up 15 ink drawings and a short poem. It's a product of a moment: all hand-made and imperfect. I think that older neglected sketches deserve some care and place in the books too. Therefore the title: Rescued Drawings. Selected ink drawings (2021-2022) Monochrome inkjet 16 pages ~210*155mm Flat binding (with a special fold) Unlimited edition 昨年描いたドローイングをピックアップして、新しい形のZINEを作ろうとしました。 とても薄く、軽く、手作りzineです。 古い放置されたスケッチも、何らかのケアと回復が必要である:なのでRescued Drawings (救出されたドローイング) 墨の作品集(2021〜2022) インクジェット印刷 16ページ 〜210*155mm 平綴じ(特殊な折り)

Who's Making the Noise?
¥1,500
道路騒音に触発され、2014-2023年の間に自宅のバルコニーから撮影した写真集です。 木々や土の山、石など、お寺、つまり、通常に安定した、固い物体が、いかに簡単に動かせるかを観察するのは、興味深いことだと思いました。 This zine was inspired by the sounds of my street. It’s also a reflection about things continuously moving, and being transported from one place to another. I found it fascinating to observe how fixed, steady, and solid objects, such as trees, heaps of soil, stones, etc. can be moved so easily. Shot in Tokyo, from my apartment balcony between 2014-2023. 写真集(2014〜2023) 40冊 オンデマンド印刷 28ページ 297*210mm 上質再生紙 中綴じ Who’s Making the Noise?

Out for a walk
¥1,500
日々描き続けているドローイングを「ウォーキング」をテーマに、写真では伝わりにくい世界観も盛り込みまとめています。街を散策する中で目にする都市景観の断片、超高層ビルの庭園、犬と散歩する人、鳥たちや雑草に潜む生き物…私の視点を通して街の息遣いが見えてくるようです。画材には、長年好んできた墨を使用し、その不均一なインクの線の中に空想と思考が交錯し広がっていきます。一連のドローイングは一見すると物語のようでありながら、私の日常の中で生まれた無作為なイメージの集積です。2010年頃のドローイングに始まり、この作品集のために2枚の作品を描き下ろしています。 My first self-published work is a reflection on my favored pastime - walking. The pages are inhabited by the fragments of an urban landscape, skyscraper gardens, dog walkers, birds, and other creatures that hide among the weeds. Fantasy and thoughts mingle in sometime, and get scattered among the disobedient lines of ink - my beloved artistic media for many years. It may look that the sequence of drawings is forming a narrative, but in fact it's a collection of unrelated images created under varied circumstances of my life in Japan, the oldest drawing dating around 2010 and only a couple of images produced specifically for this book. 墨の作品集(2010〜2022) 50冊 インクジェット印刷 28ページ 210*140mm ファンシーペーパー 中綴じ A collection of ink drawings (2010~2022) Edition of 50 copies Inkjet print 28 pages 210*140mm Printed on fine paper Stapler bound 2022, Tokyo この商品は在庫切れです。 第2版からのご予約をご希望の方はご連絡ください。 This item is out of stock.
