PROFILE: GOING AGAINST THE GRAIN

Who are you? Where do you come from? What zine do you make?

We are Going Against the Grain from East Los Angeles California. We are an all traditional analog photography collective that hand processes all our film and hand print all our photographs in the dark room. We are also screen printers, videographers, paint makers, illustrators, and various more creative expertise. We will have a variety of zine's that deal with questioning social and cultural norms around our city that people can relate to. We will have zines on social documentary, portraiture, abstract, still life, urban documentary and many more.

What would you like people to know about the zines you create and/or why you are looking forward to tabling at Phx Zine Fest 2016?

We go against the grain not because we want to be cool or weird, but because we believe and stand by everything we create. All the zines under our publication try and inspire people by challenging their perspective on life.
