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.
