DESIGN AND PRINTING OF ZINE 'KOTSIUBYNSKY: BETWEEN CINEMA AND LITERATURE'
2024

Cinematic texts on Kotsiubynsky's film adaptations. The publication is created for the occasion of the writer's 160th anniversary at the Book Arsenal. In its design, I aimed to convey movement, a variety of colors, and color as an emotional state… Personally, Kotsiubynsky's works feel like the heat after noon, the sun at its zenith, but a storm is about to pass any moment, shedding cherry blossoms to the ground, making it a bit easier to breathe, though the soul feels heavy.

Specifications: Size: A5. 48 pages. Print run: 50 copies. Cover: lenticular printing. Inside includes a section related to Parajanov's film 'Intermezzo'. Comments and edits from the advisory board can be reviewed (unfortunately, the film was not made).
