Jure Šajn: PICKING UP LINES

zine exhibition

With the Picking Up Lines exhibition, Jure Šajn explores the transformation of the visual in the format of an artist’s book. In doing so, he experiments with the procedure, recognising the visual potential of coincidence and error. The included pieces shift between photography and graphics. He explores popularised print techniques and uncovers the new possibilities for expression offered by the photocopier and risograph. His work is characterised by materiality in the use of intriguing paper grammage and raster dot size.

Jure Šajn (1988) is a multimedia designer from Ljubljana, employed as a graphic designer for a fashion retailer. In 2011, he graduated in Multimedia Production from the Institute and Academy of Multimedia. In his work, he attempts to play with combinations of various media types, techniques and formats. He’s interested in distortion, rawness, all kinds of noise, and experimenting with raster graphics. His work has been featured in various Slovenian and international art zines, magazines and artist’s books. He’s active as part of the Riso Paradiso risograph collective and runs the small Look Back and Laugh Books publishing house with Zoran Pungerčar.

Organisation: Kino Šiška.
