Satyrs


Boys, they dance. Boys, they stretch. Boys, they dream, march, sleep, and contort their bodies into all kinds of positions. Regardless of what they do though, boys have hairy legs.




As the final zine in the Parsons Pictozine class taught by Steven Guarnaccia, Satyrs depicts nude men in various positions doing various if not ambiguous things.
            The doodle-like illustrations are inspired in equal parts by Playgirl and Classic depictions of the Roman Bacchanalia. Coincidentally, a satyr is both a goat-man and a man who has strong sexual desires.


zine, edition of 10
laserprinted b/w on newsprint
