POTATO is a non-periodic zine published by a group of independent “farmers”, who are also curious illustrators with a great passion of looking beyond the ordinary. Each POTATO is a fertile land of fun and inspiring perspectives, where a new life of a simple subject begins.
What springs to your mind when it comes to potatoes? In this POTATO issue we delve into the distinctive nature of potatoes, from their resilience to adverse environments, to the silent influences that shape our cultures and history. You will
ultimately find out how important this ordinary little tuber is on this plane and travel through the potato universe alongside words, illustrations and comics.
