About Soapbox
Soapbox is an independent, open-access, student-run publishing platform, operating both in print as a peer-reviewed journal and online. Soapbox advocates for multiplicity, encouraging submissions of creative, experimental, and boundary-pushing works, alongside traditional essays, offering differing perspectives on cultural objects, concepts, and phenomena. The floor is open to students, graduate, and early career researchers, as well as writers and creatives from various backgrounds.
About Printed Matters
Printed Matters: The Politics and Aesthetics of Independent Publications invites you to experience independent publishing as both an intimate and political practice. Bringing together books, zines, magazines, and other self-published experiments, the exhibition explores how printed matter can function as a site of resistance, experimentation, and alternative knowledge production where aesthetics are inseparable from politics.
Throughout its duration, the exhibition remains active through workshops on printmaking, editing, and publishing, transforming the space into a living learning environment: part exhibition, part fair, part communal gathering.
