Underbelly London's Monica 'Jaya Plasticine-Face' Smith meets up with art collective Lazy Gramaphone...

During last month's Tastes of Ink Book Launch we were lucky enough to be visited by Underbelly London's roving reporter Monica Smith. Whereupon, taking a brief reprieve from the chaos of the book launch, we nestled ourselves into a corner of the Betsy Trotwood for a good old chin wag.

We have three fantastic prints available here, sumptuously giclee printed onto 300 gsm hahnemuhle paper stock.
With deep blacks, fantastic detail and vibrant colours these prints make an exceptional addition to any room, either hung as is or mounted and framed by yourself to add a touch of grandeur. Originally printed as a limited edition of ten each these are the last few copies and will sell out quickly so get in there to avoid disappointment.

About REM Magazine

'Think radiation. Think danger. Think radical diffusion of ideas. Forget pastoral poetry and publishable grotesque and 'pretty' prose, Rem Magazine is the ground zero for creative works that disobey, deconstruct and play.

Of course, anyone can load a website these days and call it the hub of experimental creation. Certainly, there is an ongoing struggle of what it really means to be dangerous, provocative and cutting edge. These are three words that have lost meaning over recent years as zines have enthusiastically grabbed such notions to up their commerical viability. For us, experimental is a condition or a process. Authentic, experimental ideas are those which steer us off-course, provoke new debate or have the potential to change literary and artistic values. Rem Magazine is founded upon concepts of subversion and dissection as writers search for code and meaning (or even create it) as we draw a line between defiance and commercial literature. Here at Rem, we aim to showcase such local talent in order place New Zealand's underground among international artists on the world stage. By doing so, we hope to diminish the collective nervousness, the collective embarrassment that plagues us, transforming us from a nation of individuals to a world of heros.

Duck and cover, kiddos, the rem-bomb is about to go off.'

About Sabotage:
'Sabotage likes pamphlets, small presses, poetry and fiction magazines, manifestos, online journals, stapled pieces of paper, installation poetry, ... In other words, those ephemeral works that are often created on a small budget and distributed to a limited amount of people.

Shaded by their stockier cousins these works don't always get the thoughtful criticism, heated debates, or trolls that they deserve. Let's face it, Sabotage isn't going to solve that problem, but it would like to provide a troposphere.'
