My dad said the world is ending, Mixed media, October 2020

This zine is basically a reflection and reaction to some of the things going on in the world right now. Through a variety of collages, drawings, and journal entries. I’ve been having a lot of mixed feelings about it all especially coming from things I was told growing up and versus things I’m realizing as I get older, I just have been living with, fear, anxiety, uncertainty, anger, disgust, and a need to create something to capture all these thoughts. People keeping saying the world is definitely ending, and there is no use in trying to save any of it – and this mentally really bothers me. However at the same time with everything coming out I just don’t know anymore – but I would like to have hope. Hopefully this will be a piece that people can look back on in the future and see one perspective from this wold time period.
