What's this CHIMPAN thing?
I understand why you’d read a creative magazine. I read tons of them! Love all things printed! CHIMPAN features what I’ve been up to and who I’ve been meeting with, along with their projects and ideas.
All screen printed!
How did
it all start?
THE NAME
My brother used to call me chimpan just to annoy me. You know, as my name itself would complete the chimpanzee name calling. Brotherly love is the best. This cheeky zine started as a personal project, so it deserved a cheeky personal name!
THE ZINE
My friends back home kept calling me lazy. “Zé you never post online, such a lazy dude. How are we supposed to know what you’ve been up to?”. Yup, they were/are right.
I’m a print kind of guy, so I decided to send them a small zine. I love designing, all things printed, those geeky magazine stores… and hey! Crazy new adventure! Plus, great excuse to meet new creatives and include them all in. Why not?
THE CONTENT
Gathering what i’ve been up to and what I’ve been looking at for inspo, throwing an interview with a great artist, having a guest illustrator, blabbering about my fav snacks…. yes I’m a foodie.
It sounded like stuff that I would talk about with a friend anyway so content was set!
