How do you usually react to street vendors?

Rejection

Laura Galvanetto

This series of drawings was created by passing time with Zebra vendors and experiencing the selling process with them. This artistic project focuses on the rejection that Zebra sellers constantly have to face. Before being able to finally sell a copy the vendor is ignored by many people, many passers-by thank him for the offer but say “no”, and others are impatient and annoyed by his or her presence.

Studio Image goes Zebra

“Carte blanche” for a whole issue of a magazine! The editors of Zebra magazine invited Studio Image to rethink the local street magazine. For an entire semester we explored the format of a socially engaged magazine, researching different forms of representations and involvement of marginalized groups.
