Resident in June 2026
Nationality: USA
Zoe Thompson is a London-based zine-maker and facilitator. Her work combines bookbinding, zine-making and creative writing. She champions the power of zine culture as a radical tool of expression and designs workshops centred around embodied play; facilitating warm, joyful and accessible spaces for collective making.
During her 6-week residency, Zoe explored the artist book as a vessel for storytelling.
Focusing primarily on strengthening her bookbinding skills, she experimented with exposed stitch bindings, concertinas, pamphlets and compiled a 50-page poetry collection.
For Zoe, this was an exciting opportunity to find a balance between her primary practice of zine-making, which welcomes imperfection, with book-binding, a craft that favours precision.
"I'm super grateful to have had the time and space to develop my practice and just play. I plan to continue making little artist books and potentially making an edition of my poetry collection."
