ZINE OBJECT 00000101 / 04
Collection 01 · Sikkim, 2025
HumanEvidence.
Four analogue works shaped by mountain light, film, chemistry, cold, glass and human presence.
The house thesis
History should not have to guess what was real.
Every generation leaves something behind. Ours may be the first where reality and generation become difficult to distinguish.
ZINE preserves what was truly made, touched, photographed, painted, printed and lived by human beings. AI can serve the house. The collected object remains human.
