NOTE

CREDITS

our exploration into creating a physical publication and working in a

practical way with the youth lead us on this divine course of zine creation.

And in relation to helping to spark creativity, we believe this is right on

the consultation fee. With a select group of fine art students all playing

contributing editors and curation provided by the global healers we visited,

in the sometimes subterranean depths of Hillbrow, made for almost as

unique an experience as we had creating this product you hold in your

psalms. we hope you enjoy our interpretation of a glimpse into the world

of urban healers, and hopefully those very same spirits will see us through

unchartered water.
