seaside magic [zine]

$3.00

by luke kurtis

Languishing from the pandemic, the artist took a personal retreat by the sea and resolved to spend his days away from computer screens and focus on slowing down, observing nature, making sketches, and creating a restorative and healing experience with his partner. seaside magic, the resulting body of work, is a poetic document of those days that combines photography, video, poetry, drawing, music, and design.

The zine collects drawings, poetry, and video stills from the multimedia body of work. Originally designed as a limited edition with a special cover of handmade paper, it is part of the artist’s object box of emanations. This standalone edition has a standard cover.
