THE FIRST FANZINE GUEST EDITOR IS THE ENGLISH ARTIST AND PHOTOGRAPHER INDIGO LEWIN, WHO HAS CURATED THE FIRST ISSUE WITH AN EXCLUSIVE SELECTION OF IMAGES FROM HER ARCHIVE.

BORN AND RAISED IN LONDON, INDIGO LEWIN’S BODY OF WORK IS AN HONEST DEPICTION OF THE WORLD SHE SEES AROUND HER. HER CURIOSITY AND FASCINATION WITH INTIMACY, THE BODY, YOUTH, AND FRIENDSHIP ARE WHAT GUIDE HER WORK. WHAT EMANATES FROM INDIGO’S PHOTOGRAPHS ARE TOUCHING REVELATIONS OF THE INCREDIBLE BEAUTY BEHIND SHARED MOMENTS BETWEEN PEOPLE. BY USING HER INTIMATE CIRCLE OF FRIENDS AS THE SUBJECTS IN HER PHOTOGRAPHS, INDIGO IS ABLE TO EXPLORE THIS CONCEPT IN A WAY THAT FEELS NATURAL AND AUTHENTIC. SHE REMINDS US OF THE FRAGILITY BEHIND THESE DEEPLY PERSONAL AND TREASURABLE MOMENTS IN LIFE THAT ARE SO FLEETING.

IN FANZINE’S FIRST ISSUE, INDIGO’S IMAGES SIT ALONGSIDE HER WRITING AND PERSONAL NOTES. IT’S A SPONTANEOUS INVITATION FROM THE ARTIST FOR US TO CONNECT WITH HER, AS IF WE WERE READING INTIMATE ENTRIES FROM HER PRIVATE DIARY. INDIGO OFFERS US A RARE GLIMPSE INTO HER WORLD, FULL OF TENDERNESS AND HUMANITY.
