I listen & observe
2025




Context: I listen & observe is a photography and storytelling zine by Pino, featuring a portrait series titled PIX.4US. This ongoing project highlights creatives and friends who inspire the artist, pairing each portrait with a personal quote that offers insight into their inner lives.

The zine also includes hand-drawn doodles by Pino, which were scanned from her personal journal and digitally incorporated into the layout. These drawings appear throughout the pages to tie the stories together and add a personal visual layer to the project.

Themes of vulnerability, identity, grief, freedom, and growth are explored through honest reflections and imagery. Designed by me and printed by Secret Riso Club NYC, the zine brings together photography, illustration, and storytelling in a thoughtful and collaborative format.
