TIC TAC

Published December 13, 2025

Created during a workshop with Phantasia at ESDESIGN, this fanzine is a contemplative journey into the fluid nature of time. Tic Tac begins with the familiar rhythm of a clock, only to unravel it and reveal that time is far from linear. Through sparse text, open space, and a tension between repetition and silence, the piece suggests that time can fold in on itself, return to previous moments, or slip quietly into the margins where we rarely look.

The fanzine plays with presence and absence, encouraging the reader to slow down and feel the subtle distortions that shape everyday experience. Each page becomes a pause – a small disturbance in the usual forward motion – inviting reflection on how we perceive, measure, and inhabit temporal cycles. Rather than offering answers, it creates an intimate atmosphere where time becomes something to rediscover, to trace, and to question.
