RUFF HAUS MAGAZINE (2016 - 2018)
A self-published collaborative illustration and sequential arts magazine founded by Gabor and Julian Bata, featuring a dizzying array of artists and designers across its two mainline entries.
My role primarily pertained to social media management and marketing, book editing, artist curation, as well as gallery show planning and assistance for book launches in Montreal, QC.
The series has its roots in TOTUM Zine, a quadrilogy of art books produced by various Dawson College alumni from 2015 to 2016, of which I participated and assisted in the production.
