A reformatted or preview version of our original exhibition This is (not) tomorrow, which has been postponed till a later date when it is safe to open Pulp Society’s gallery.

To try and combat feelings of anxiety, isolation and creative doldrums, we

re-envisioned the format of our original zine exhibition plan in line with the current times.

Over the past few weeks, 78 artists, illustrators, writers and first-time makers collaborated in a unique digital program to make 16 zines. As an attempt to combat the loneliness and creative isolation resulting from the lockdown, Pulp Society x TIRAF created two digital games - Exquizine and Blind Date — in hope of energizing the creative community through the power of collective action.

The participating artists along with Pulp Society x TIRAF are donating the outcome of this collaboration to the COVID-19 relief work and would like YOU to join in this collective effort to help those who are most in need.

Through the sale of a limited edition of 20 Exquizine and Blind Date zines, we can together aim to raise INR 2,00,000 — that’s the amazing power of collective action!
