Hallucine

Art zine, 40 pages, 14.8 × 21 cm (A5)

Stamped cardboard cover (identical front & back), 9 folded A4 photocopy sheets creating 36 pages, bound with a rubber band for free reordering. Total: 324 graphics (9 per page).

Process: Each composition is based on a 3×3 grid. Cells are split by randomized diagonals (up/down), then filled arbitrarily with black or white.

Concept: Hallucine uses simplicity to provoke complexity. Stripped of text and context, its randomized graphics act as mirrors for the viewer’s mind. The title (hallucination + zine) reflects its intent—to invite interpretation and stimulate the imagination. With no fixed sequence, no beginning or end, pages can be freely reordered, shifting perception and meaning.

A tactile, meditative object and creative catalyst, Hallucine is designed to spark imagination, encourage storytelling, and inspire open-ended play—alone or with others.
