SAMO© NEVER DIED.

EDITORIAL DESIGN, POSTER DESIGN

OVERVIEW

This project is an 8-page zine that unfolds into an 11x17 poster, exploring the legacy of SAMO©, the street poetry and graffiti project co-created by Jean-Michel Basquiat in late-1970s New York. Designed in the spirit of DIY publishing, the zine embraces the raw, expressive qualities that define both zine culture and SAMO itself—unpolished, immediate, and subversive. This zine uses accessible tools and unconventional design to mirror the sporadic and bold nature of Basquiat's work.

Twenty-volume folios will never make a revolution. It’s the little pocket pamphlets that are to be feared.
