Hi, I think I've stopped posting here. This is my new blog:

Cape Town Zine Project.

Hi,
I'm starting a project called the Cape Town Zine Project. It's quite small at the moment, but it will in the future collect a lot of South African self-published matter in one place, a shop. So far we have the Chimurenganya series and the Jungle Jim series. If you self-publish, please get in touch. The books/zines can be bought at Blank Books, in Woodstock, Cape Town and on the Blank Books website.

Cool

Tumblr.

Hi, If you're keen on seeing my drawings and photos, I am posting somewhat regularly on my Tumblr page, sebastianborckenhagen.tumblr.com.

Glück

These are what my new booklet look like. They haven't really gone on sale yet, though I gave three to Blank Books in Woodstock, Cape Town when I was there on Saturday. The booklet was produced as part of the Independent Publishing Project's second iteration at the Goethe-Institut in Johannesburg that took place over March and April. For the closing a signed, numbered and dog-drawing-ed edition of five were sold.

A hearty thank you and quick update.

Johannesburg, April 2012

News of two exhibitions and one publication follow after the jump.

Information follows, on how to acquire my publications.

People Comics

Well, friends. I am about to zoom off to Hamburg to take part in a show there called Comics and Avant-Garde from South Africa (Raum Links-Rechts, Gängerviertel - 24th March-14th April). Will be bringing up a stack of comics and a whole bunch of litho prints, in case you are in town.

Two of the comics that I'm taking up are Philosophy Comics and People Comics which I made in February. The two form a pair. People Comics is, with exception of the last page, a series of word-less people-scapes. Here are a few of those pages. Click 'read more' to see more.

The Design Indaba. (A ramble-on)

A brush and ink drawing I had up for sale.

This weekend I took part in a trade show at the CTICC, the Design Indaba.

Watch out.

A quick update.

It has been a long while since I've written. This while coincides, coincidentally, with a rather action-packed patch of my life as a comic-artist.
