SKREAM: The Punk Issue

SKREAM: THE PUNK ISSUE
Concept and Design by Florian Mecklenburg 
Format 180 x 285, 36 Pages

SKREAM is a publication series that explores specific youth cultural currents as preservers of pop cultural phenomena. Each edition taps into zine culture by creating a new zine about zines—an investigation into fashion, attitude, iconography, and visual language sampled from early '90s zines and subcultural artefacts. It documents how visual culture becomes a form of resistance by shaping its own identity.

More than nostalgia, SKREAM uses the cyclical return of certain aesthetics as a lens for understanding how culture processes itself—what it chooses to remember, remix, and reimagine. It asks: how do past subcultures survive through image and style, and what does their reappearance say about now?
