The Making & Mending Rituals Podcast
Leisure:Crafts
Hey everyone, I'm excited to send this conversation with Darcy Leigh your way! I love Darcy's zines and I hope that all the imaginary permissions slips we've handed out to ourselves in this episode will make you feel excited to DIY more things too. Here is what we talked about:
Darcy Leigh co-runs @easterroadpress, an insurrectionary transfeminist press based in Scotland. She is into DIY everything, from her zines about butch bodies, to her DIY archiving and curation at butcharchive.com. Themes from her work include fatness, transness, tits, ambivalence, Jewishness and psychiatry. She lives half in Edinburgh, half in Brighton (it’s complicated), and appreciates pigeons, innovative zine folds and dark truths. When not in queer zine land, Darcy works in the ivory tower and is also committed to its destruction (aka, is a Lecturer in Law who researches the ongoing history of the British Empire). This is the Easter Road Press Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/EasterRoadZines Easter Road Press on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/easterroadpress/ Glasgow Zine Fest on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glasgowzinelib/
