inituition- get an idea and a feeling
covered mental health and tackling your inner demons putting a name and a face to it

do you always see suspira as print or will you move into digital?
the prints and the materials and the way it sits in your hands doesn't do it justice as you cant see things that you do in the flesh like the metalic
logo is embossed
theme
hard to keep it the same but kept some of the typefaces and the paper and the logo
process for research where were you looking?
organic decision
monster issue had people come forward that couldn't be included
knew that she wanted it to be late 60's and graining
graphic horror and making it aesthetically pleaseing
sabbath instagram and social media her friend and editor of the magazine
Did you have any setbacks?
not really any
maybe the relationship with the printers
she luckily had a great network of people around her
