Взрослые травмы
Straight to the pointTATTOO WEBZIN
The world of dynamic development does not leave us the opportunity to stand still, remaining in comfort. Social networks have ceased to fulfill their function, the overwhelming majority of the audience has turned into spambots. History, post, ridiculous stuff. Content for content, useless noise for algorithms to notice me. Reactions, likes, comments, saves. All this is nothing. You will not look at these saves, you will not remember these comments in a week. Your reaction is air. Even the most active participants do not believe in this communication, it does not exist. Social networks are dead and we continue to rape their corpse.
Hi, my name is Зачем
and I wrote a zine.
This magazine is the result of my immersion in the modern tattoo culture of Kiev, which was catalyzed by my work in the Euthanasia Sport community.
This is an emotionally centered book. Each artist is viewed primarily through the prism of my personal perception.
Graphical dialogue
I think a tattoo is more than a jewelry.
Each image is a vessel in which a person mixes his life experience and personal experiences associated with it with a similar experience and aesthetics of the artist.
The imprinting of such a bunch of meanings by traumatizing the skin is a strong emotional experience for its participants, which leads to a transformation of the personality.
In the works that are included in this zine, I explore this approach from different angles.
By modifying and complementing the imagery of other artists, I try to understand the way they think, the message and the experience they put into their work.
I see the result as a graphic dialogue of artists that are relevant to me, a symbiosis of their ideas and experiments for the sake of creating something more
You can join this dialogue if you are interested in its participants or you may not join, your life depends on you :-)
Zin eternal
Some pages have a QR code that leads to the web version of the zine. It is uploaded to unlimited hosting and will always be available via a link that can be conveniently shared with other creative people.

I am writing it now, every morning from Monday to Friday, and as soon as I finish it, the next one is formed.
A new big chapter appears about once a month.
After the presentation, I want to interview some artists of the local and European tattoo scene, publish articles of studio residents that are close to me and other interesting content that I consider important to preserve in the ocean of the digital eternity.
