As an amateur photographer, it's been one of my main aims to have my creations being enjoyed by people not only digitally, but also in the form of a real thing. After much consideration and thoughts, I finally decided to create my first ever photo "zine".
Knowing me, I always want to do something a tiny little bit different. So I explore ideas on what kind of photo zine that I would like to create. After much thought, I finally decided not to create it in a magazine form, but more like postcard form. This way, if you really really REALLY like the photo, you can put it everywhere, on your wall, desk, books (I use one of my photos as a bookmark.... well, simply because it's the nearest thing around me at that time XD), pretty much everywhere you want.
Then what about the container? I was thinking of creating a box, but I have my own handmade line, why not use some of my fabrics as the envelope? This way, people can use the fabric envelope as pouch as well where you can store.... things... I presume...
And about the theme, Malam di Ibukota or Night in the Capital City, it's actually some shots that I took in Jakarta. Somehow this shows my feeling about the night in the city. It's chaotic sometimes, contemplative, tired, colourful, hopeful, pretty much scenes that you can find in a big city. This is my first series of work in this theme. I am thinking of creating more "zine" like this in the future.
So without further ado, please welcome, Miranti's first-ever photo "zine", Malam di Ibukota!
