Zine Flashback-Sew Seoulful

Did this zine for fun back in the day, had it in spots in NYC, TX, VA, DC, MD, LA, The Bay, I think it was even in Canada and New Zealand at one point. The thing i love about zines is that there are no rules, everything is fair game. No art directors, clients, or people to please…just you and the reader (eventually). Think I may make another for fun! Folks like Christy Road, Shotgun Seamstress, Cometbus, Travis Fudge, Morning Breath, and so many others made me want to make one to start with, and eventually I made four…

These are some shots from the Zine opening at Fresthetic Gallery in Brooklyn, Ny. A whole lot of homies came through to help me celebrate this and it was awesome! Time I do another show, no?

Brooklyn, over a year ago -SS.2 ZINE


Fresthetic Exhibit: Robert “Tres” Trujillo from Olubusola Ajayi on Vimeo.

This is footage of my first solo show, featuring black ink drawings and the second installment in my SS Zine series. “Sew Seoulful” SS .Volume two. It was documented and edited by Ms O.M. Ajayi who will be showing her debut film in Boston tommorrow. The show was held at Fresthetic in Brooklyn, NY. Since the show I’ve gotten the Zine into several stores in California and NY such as Desert Island(NY), Blue Stockings (NY), Bergen St. Comics(NY), Pegasus Books (CA), Rock Paper Scissors(CA), Pins and Needles (SF),and Fresthetic (NY) of course. I’m still trying to get it into some other spots, but I’m also starting to work on the 3rd Zine in the SS series. Stay tuned..

SS.Vol.2 Sew Seoulful-East Coast Release….and uhm, my First Solo Show


This was the opening for my 3rd Zine SS Vol. 2 (Sew Seoulful). The term “sew” refers to joining fabric, or in this case (art/ideas) together. Seoul, refers to the birthplace of my father “Seoul” Korea, and “Seoulful” refers to a mixtape i used to make back in the day with alot of soulful samples from several genres of music. Energy never dissappears, it just changes form…….
SS is a series of zines I started in 2007 and one which i plan to do until I get tired of it. thanks to all those who came thru and supported. It was truly a very humbling experience and and an honor to share my art w/ you. If you have any fotos from that night, please hit me up…
