Z3NE is our third collective book. The first two are Z-ONE & The Big Rot. These
creatures are the result of three different open call’s. Each without a theme. Although
for The Big Rot, there was a note saying that we were looking for images
decaying in the borders of your archives. It’s basically what we’re interested
in. We don’t believe in the power of a stand alone image as much as we believe
what a group might stand for together. That’s why we make books.
Shy, silent, hesitant images start to open up. They start revealing sides of them
which remained hidden so far. Small dialogues emerge. Then they get louder
and louder. Individual notes become a whole orchestra.
That’s why we prefer listening to the images and not starting with a specific idea
in mind. We are interested in works that suggest instead of showing. Whisper
instead of shouting. Something violent can become heavier when communicated
in a soft manner. Sometimes light becomes the best way to evoke darkness…
The book is divided into chapters, they remain without a name.
