The Posterzine Project brings together stories and anecdotes by Hobart-based jewellery artists in the form of a folded poster that can be viewed in a time and place of one’s choosing. Produced using a mix of traditional letterpress and digital processes, the project explores an alternative curatorial approach by focusing on the Tasmanian experience through the simplest means of exhibition display and communication. This project is developed by jewellery artists and lecturers, Zoe Veness and Sarah Jones, from the University of Tasmania in collaboration with the TasTAFE Letterpress Studio in Hobart.
