Near Window Edition 1: Confinement REPRINT

Near Window is a zine about escape, or about confinement. It began life as a kind of daily journal, documenting the world outside my nearest window during the long stretch of 12 weeks confinement in the Spring of 2020.

All of the pieces in this first edition of Near Window were created as a direct response to confinement, and/or lockdown. As the months move on, the zine will continue to evolve, but its core motive of providing a view outside of yourself will continue.The pieces in this inaugural edition range from the contemplative to the ridiculous. We’ve got poetry, creative non-fiction, and flash fiction pieces along with beautiful art and illustration.

The sale of the first 50 copies sent £225.50 to Reclaim the block.
