Objects: an Inventory -- Print Zine
Objects: an Inventory is a print zine by Amy Bornman. The 24-page zine is personal essay, literary criticism, and meditation on the materiality of motherhood woven together into the pleasing “object” of a palm-sized little book. If you’ve ever thought about all the items you touch in a day and how they affect you, this zine is for you. And if you haven’t thought about that before — maybe it’s time?
“In a way, that’s how every part of my life as a mother has felt. My children taking claim over my body, my time, my living space. Taking out all my papers, all the artifacts of my history, and scattering them amongst the graham cracker crumbs.”
(Excerpt from Objects)
Also available as a digital download! (Here!)
Zines are handmade, and may have small imperfections. Amy is the primary caregiver to two small children, so work is slow — please expect a lead time of up to two weeks before your order ships.
Zines are sent using USPS First Class Mail Stamps and are not trackable. If three weeks have gone by and your order has not arrived, please get in touch!
Shipping is $1.00 per zine to US addresses, and $1.50 per zine internationally. For bulk or consignment orders, please reach out to Amy at amybornman@gmail.com for an alternate shipping rate.
