PANEL DISCUSSION:
ON THE DIVERSITY OF SELF-PUBLISHING

There are no set standards or structures to self-publishing – from staple-bound photocopied pages to full-coloured bound publications, this format allows for a wide range voices, identities and possibilities.

In this talk, we discuss the diversity of self-publishing with four bookmakers, each one’s practise different from the next, and understand the significance of doing it yourself.

Speakers: Gideon Kong (Temporary Press), Vanessa Lim (@hellovanlim), Huda Azzis (Your Local Newsstand), Shuilam Wong (HOLE IN THE WALL)

Moderator: Renée Ting (Singapore Art Book Fair/Thing Books)

Gideon Kong co-runs gideon-jamie, a design studio, Temporary Press, a publishing project, and teaches design at Lasalle College of the Arts, Singapore.

Van Lim is an independent illustrator and graphic designer currently based in Singapore. She’s never afraid to experiment with visuals, graphics, and form. With a great interest in print and publication works, Van has experimented with books and printmaking as a form of—both art and archive. She has designed and self-published a range of publications from art books to zines.

A freelance video editor by day and zine maker by night, Huda Azzis's interests in zine making started when she was a teenager. What started as a hobby, collecting black and white xerox printed zines soon morphed into Your Local Newsstand, a five-year-old outfit whose aim is to highlight works by new and emerging photographer.

HOLE IN THE WALL is a creative duo that records the alternative music and art scene through interviews and live drawings. Started in Beijing, they now reside in Hong Kong and Tokyo. From creating illustrations and zine making, they hope to capture people and places part of the underground culture across the cities they visit.
