Jessica is a designer based in Porto Alegre, Brazil. She’s also a collagist and drummer of Duo Ruim. I got to know her while I was looking for zinefest posters for an azf2015 exhibition. Her creation for the second Faça Você Mesmx Zine Fest was one of the few notable cut ‘n’ paste posters I could find (that’s a bit ironic though, since zine culture has a considerable bond with this technique). Jessica makes amazing collages which she usually publishes in her zines or ones she co-publishes with friends.

Her latest zines are Jeunesse du Visage and DIY Zine Kit. The first one is a collection of portrait collages, and the second a decomposed cut ‘n’ paste zine in a plastic bag! You can check Jessica’s art at jessicanakaema.tumblr.com.

PS. The xeroxed paper from South America has a great, distinctive smell!
