100 WHANZINES is an anthology of five years of my own fanzine publications. The book includes 552 pages of reproductions from each of the 100 zine releases. The book offers a comprehensive photographic exploration of a diverse range of objects. These come from a variety of sources, such as my commercial projects, holiday snaps and my own and borrowed collections. As a commercial photographer, having the freedom to produce new images through these fanzines has been deeply gratifying. The book is being launched in June 2023, and will be available from Antenne Books as well as shops in London, Paris and New York.

Atlas is 20 fanzines with a personal mission. I am a photographer passively observing, but not recording the world as it passes by. I am changing and removing my aspirations by simply becoming someone’s image machine. I translate their assignment for my own benefit. My future is becoming my own proxy photographer. A secondary me, that will inhabit my eye to capture then reproduce an image with a new perspective. Marius W Hansen, London, July 2018. Design/Concept @texasknuller
