Selection committee explanation:

Lin Gerkman, Sit, 2021

Through a series of photographs, the zine Sit documents a group of visionaries from the 1960s who, as the author puts it, “invented a solution to a common problem”. He makes very good use of the book form of a zine and builds tension gradually, as we do not know what this “common problem” is until the end. The author used archival materials as a starting point for creating a witty new whole with a thorough concept and execution.
