ERSATZ MAGAZINE // Conceptual Work
found & custom illustration & photography, 4 colors on acetate / velum / uncoated paper
This experimental magazine is a more of a postmodern artwork than a functional item. It is a piecetha has no preexisting reference in reality other than in the imagination itself. The magazine concept is based on imaginary system of perception. It breaks down predictable publication clichés, in order to bring them up to the level of unfamiliar randomness. It challenges perception, language, and the system of foreseeable continuity, as we know it. It is not real, because it precedes reality. Thus, it is hyper real.
Not for commercial use. It exists only for personal amusement.
