• Thinking with colors: I made an academic zine with riso

  Earlier this week I’ve been part of an inspiring and intense comics conference (4-5 May 2026, Malmö, Sweden), where a most friendly and generous international community spent days and nights reflecting on the field. I was a respondent in the MATERIALITY section. As respondent, I could spend time with the smart and passonate position papers by Barbara Chamberlin and Hailey Austin. I felt it only appropriate to prepare a handout… but then my brain started overthinking the innocent idea and turning it into a two-week project. So I responded to the papers by making a zine in the risography studio of Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture (2 weeks, 3 colors).

• Comics about Comics Studies

  If there is one thing in this world that I have always loved that is overcomplicating things. (And dinosaurs). So I was extra happy that I could work on this comic about comics, what is more, comics about comics studies. My comics are part of a larger project, published in the volume Comics Is…: Debating the Subject of Comics Studies, edited by Martin Lund: the chapters of the book are academic conversations on defining comics and on aspects of comics that seem relevant in the current moment.

• Fake Birds – New Riso Zine

  I feel that the mini zine format is what I need to be doing right now! Here is a new riso-printed mini zine about my frustration about AI-generated animals. I do not believe that we need fake videos about artificial animals jumping around–but I made an attempt to analyze and understand some aspects of the situation. So, behold my zine, Fake Birds!

  Fake Birds was printed in BPZines Risograph Studio, Budapest, in January 2026.

  Festival Appearances:

  • Stockholm International Comics Festival (SIS), 16-17 May 2026
  • Fanzinefest Vienna, 22-24 May 2026

• Where is the flow? — New Riso Zine

  I have made a new zine titled Where is the Flow? It is about anxieties around creativity and self-expression and it is a fictional monologue of a Hungarian woman called Ildikó. I was selling this zine–along with other comics I co-created or edited– at the Helsinki Zine festival, 20-21 September 2025. I loved the location of the festival in an abandoned factory, I loved the windows that gave us so much light, and the proximity of the comics festival participants. I also made a number of new friends 🙂

  Where is the Flow? was printed in If By Magic risograph studio in Helsinki.

  Festival Appearances:
