ZINEs

For the 'Queer Days' screening event which was organized by Cinema Niche, I was asked to make a comic based on one of the movies, titled Waterlilies. For the zine I made a two page length comic inspired by the relationships and dynamic between the three main characters Marie, Anne, and Floriane. This was my first published work.

This zine was made for an animation project; it's a collection of searching drawings, sketches and ideas that didn't make it into the film.

The theme was the question of the meaning of life. It's about a little kid who is searching for this god-like entity, a big hairy dog to ask them about the meaning of life. Later on, as I am currently working on the story still, their dynamic changed and their relationship became a more mother-child like dynamic.

This zine is titled 'bőr' which means 'skin' in Hungarian.

I wanted to visualize the feeling of touch and the tenderness of the skin. This was my first time working with riso, using the colors; Medium Blue and Fluo Pink.
