About HERE is ZINE #20
Zine has broken the boundaries of imagination—whether it is about creation or imagination of the world, meaning, rules, even the threshold of printing is no longer an excuse. Zine has become more popular and has more possibilities than before.
Following the catchphrase, "To make your unique copy", Here is ZINE was founded by Tokyo-based creative group Enlightenment since 2010, and it has been successfully held for 10 years. During 2016 to 2017, Here is ZINE was launched as a major event of Shenzhen Design Week and organized in the famous art park PMQ Cube in Hong Kong with the support of Creative Hong Kong. This year, Here is ZINE's spirit has conveyed to Poznan for the first time. Whether it's across cities, across fields, or even across groups, it can always spark something we didn't expect.
​
As Alain de Botton once said, "Art is a tool for healing the soul." Art and love are universal languages.
This year, Here is ZINE set love as the theme, inviting cross- border artists from Tokyo, Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Poznan to show the city's personality through Zines, and to converge love in people's hearts and cities.
​
In today's world, we need the power of love more than ever. We sincerely invite you to take Zine as the carrier and jointly irrigate this seed named "love". Through Zines, more ideas can be seen, felt and loved.
