Fish Island
Zine - 2015
Fish Island is a zine that delves into the ongoing gentrification of Hackney Wick in East London, with a focus on its neighborhood, Fish Island. Through a combination of digital and hand-drawn illustrations, the zine explores the area's past, present, and future, visually juxtaposing historic landmarks with the rise of shiny, soulless new developments. It also features interviews with local residents, adding personal perspectives to the narrative.
Originally conceived as a self-initiated project, Fish Island was later exhibited at the local gallery/café/studio space, Stour Space.
