PUBLICATIONS BY STUDENTS



Softbound




Softbound was a publication project by Anisha Baid while she was a student of Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology in 2019. Here, you can read her larger essay on Yelahanka’s art initiatives. The digital copy of the zine is made available courtesy Anisha Baid.

She writes, “At the end of my time at the art school (2019), I also started a publication project, compiling works made collaboratively from this network of artists in Yelahanka into a zine called Softbound, which was launched with a collaborative rug-making party at my residence in SFS. This publication was printed on copy paper on Srishti’s university printers, utilizing the remainder of all the contributors’ complimentary printing budgets provided by the institute, thus limiting the costs to only printing and binding the books. This event and zine marked for many of us the end of our time in Yelahanka, and much of the works featured familiar locations and memories from the community.”
