This is a zine made by Four with Citation Needed.

Using xerography and a typewriter, this post-apocalyptic book is silly, sad, and beautiful. Four creates a poetic universe in which the world is ending, patterns repeat endlessly, and broccoli grows on trees.

Four is a 4th grader who loves art. Four loves watching a miniseries called BFDI. Four likes to write. Four also loves Olivia Rodrigo and Melanie Martinez. Four was wild when they were younger but is kind of chill now. Yay!

Citation Needed is an intergenerational publishing initiative, supporting the creation and production of artist books by 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. Through a weekly workspace, participants generate individual and collaborative books, utilizing photocopiers, typewriters, and a range of drawing materials. Citation Needed provides project-based arts experiences for children while amplifying their voices through the printed matter and book arts. This initiative is led by artist Ari Wolff, in collaboration with the 14th Street Y After School and Printed Matter / St Marks.
