Risks and Benefits Zine [Pre-order]

$7.00 - $12.00

A zine created to go alone with prints of similar images of figures on medication risks and benefits
will ship in early September 2024 from Minneapolis.

Medication is often a ritual in the lives of disabled people. We also navigate how meds are prescribed and marketed, and affect us in different ways.

Versions of these prints are currently on display at Mill City Museum in Minneapolis through November 3, 2024 as part of The Art of Disability Justice Now. AmplifyMN a newly formed disability justice collective.

All these prints began life as an analog collage constructed using knives, paper, scissors, and glue, which currently hangs in a mental health professional's office. Each of the three prints have been digitally adjusted. Some of the versions are Washed Out Bubble Gum Pink Asks Their Doctor, 2023, The Best Bubblegum Pink Does Medication Risks and Benefits, 2023, and Ink Blue Remembers the Doctor Writing Out a Dosage Schedule, 2023, all of these images are part of this zine.

Zines will ship beginning Friday September 6, 2024.

Both a zine and an 8.5" x 11" poster, this palm-sized book features collage and text by Alison Bergblom Johnson. 6 pages, plus front and back covers. Folded zine. 2.75 " x 4.25" Reverse is an 8.5" x 11" poster.
