Loculus #9: By Heart

Loculus is a hand-made Art Zine that features a visual essay on a theme. The ideas inside are wide-ranging, provocative, and intended to inspire thought and action. Each copy is collaged with a unique art paper, hand printed from a linoleum block, and folded with an inside pocket that contains a mini-comic. 

Loculus #9 “By Heart” is about hearts, heartbeats, polygraph tests, memory, memorization, and forgetting.  It is larger than any Loculus before, with 45 full-color pages, a large fold-out center page, and a color comic insert. The cover is a hand-made relief print over a collage insert.
