is a 105mm x 128mm publication curated/edited/designed by Nous Vous Collective and Marc Alcock. Contributors are invited to respond to a given theme, the first issue being 'SPACE'. POCKET-SIZED is Individually hand-bound, Litho printed in black and white with a screenprinted cover.
Issue 1 - SPACE has a ltd run of 500 copies available in selected stockists. Our aim is to create a predominantly visual exploration of a vast subject, a comment on the frequent attempts to condense intangible material into bite sized chunks through literature, still or moving images. It is impossible to condense such a huge subject as ‘SPACE’ into a pocket-sized guide, but we hope that our attempts will nonetheless create a stimulating and diverse publication, encouraging others to explore...
