Critically Endangered Species

AR art zine

​

The project BESTIARY focuses on critically endangered animals and the threats they are facing from human disturbance, while utilizing paper and screen as tools of visual storytelling. It is a self-published zine that combines illustration, calligraphy, frame-by-frame animation and AR technology.
The aim of this non-profit project is to support educational programs, raise awareness and funding towards the protection and recovery of the vulnerable wildlife.
All the profits from the zine distribution will aid the following charity organizations: Wildlife Alliance and Endangered Species International.

The art zines were printed with the risograph technique, on the recycled paper with sustainable inks, courtesy of Out of Blue Print Shop in Edinburgh. The calligraphy was produced by Piotr Ciesiołkiewicz, which I would like to sincerely express my gratitude regarding this contribution.

To avoid any waste, the misprints containing additional hand-painted illustrations (painted with tattoo ink) are available to be purchased via shop.

Sincerely,
A.
