Black History Month Zine
For Black History Month, we wanted to support and spotlight Black talent both online and offline. We opened submissions on our Instagram platform with the theme of “what does Black representation look and feel like to you?”. This zine displays work responding to the set brief, as well as work from the wider portfolio of the selected photographers.
We’ve loved seeing the work of every Black photographer who responded to our brief and saw Black representation captured so beautifully and thoughtfully. The zine is now available for purchase in our shop and the profit made will go back into funding the foundation.
