New Europe zine final edit from Sean McDonnell on Vimeo.

Following last month’s inspirational talk on zines the theme continued in May’s online meeting as Sean McDonnell showed a video of a zine he has been working on New Europe. He says more about it on his blog here. Can’t wait until we meet again to see it in print…

We also explored the theme of abstract photography and took as our launch point the wonderfully curated London Independent Photography’s Instagram account’s stories which are really well curated collections of LIP members photos. There are five sets of abstracts (so far) – scroll along the top. For example this is the first set. 

Various group members showed and talked about some of their abstract photos. Here are a few by way of example.

And members showed a few other things they were working on in lockdown. Jonny showed some of his photos from a trip to New Zealand just before lockdown – see flickr album here.
