After the last zine with Sander Meisner, TVC was asked to participate in a zine show in London by Dazed&Confused. I saw the bright lights and knew I wanted my own work to also be on show. I had always envisioned TVC as a platform for my own work too and here was the chance. Small little zine – same size as TVC001 – and contains really black and white work that I had shot years previously in London.

About the Publisher
The Velvet Cell is a German-based photobook publisher run by visual artist Ricardo Nunes and was established by Éanna de Fréine in 2011. We are rooted primarily in the themes of urbanization and the human-altered world. Our approach is single-minded: to create beautiful, interesting and informative books that bring delight to people, an help to see the world in new ways. In the 14 years we’ve been around, we have become known as a source of quality photography projects– by both established artists, like Alejandro Cartagena, Toshio Shibata or Peter Bialobreskzi and up-and-coming artists. We pride ourselves on the care and thoughtfulness that goes into every stage of the book-making process, and strive to reflect the diversity of visual arts publishing today.
