In the Spring of 2017, I launched an independently published zine project that chronicled the beginnings of a fashion community in upstate New York. At the time, I was living at the edge of farmland a half hour from Hudson, and working at a business called Kasuri, which stocks designers such as Comme des Garçons, Vivienne Westwood, Eckhaus Latta, and Walter van Beirendonck.
The project was in part inspired by ideas of the pastoral as a frontier for creativity that have been explored by people like Marina Abramovic and Rem Koolhaas. It interviewed and featured entrepreneurs, artists, and farmers in Columbia County and was sold at Iconic Magazines in New York City.
