Colouring Outside The Lines

"Here were girls encouraging each other, directly and indirectly, to put their ideas into the world."

Colouring Outside The Lines is a zine featuring interviews with contemporary female artists; illuminating various corners of current female artistic and creative activity.

"We discover that behind the hysteria of male expertise lies the magic world of our unmade art"

"It becomes hard to make a clear division between art, politics and everyday living: the question 'what for' is answered in the activity"

ALL THE GIRLS ARE SITTING ON A PILE OF GOLD
