I have been afraid of chains underwater my whole life. I realised this when I was a child, while watching a cartoon polar bear climb a buoy. This zine and the essay within it attempt to identify the reasons for and thresholds of this very specific fear.

This project was started in the sixth semester at DHBW Ravensburg | Mediendesign [MdRV] and continued as a free project after completing the Bachelor’s degree.

The hand-bound booklet has 16 pages and measures 90×170 mm. It was Riso-printed with two colors at Risofort Hamburg, on Fedrigoni Arena White Rough 120g/m². Limited edition of 75 prints.

Supervision by Florian Tscharf. Proofreading and conceptional support by Marie-Luise Weier. For the typography, I used HAL Timezone.
