About the Artists:

Samm Lee
Samm Lee aka LEEZY will be discussing the emotional and creative healing processes behind the creation of her original zine Splatt, Edition 2: what will remain with Cece Alonzo. Lee’s work highlights the painful and delicate nature of grief, and the curiosities that might arise from one’s experience of grief through a creative lens.
Celine Alonzo
Celine Alonzo aka Cece Beanzzini is a multidisciplinary designer, whose work is rooted in playful, organic forms and imaginative storytelling. Her most recent project was “Digizine”- a collection of photos captured from her experience of carrying a digital camera with her everyday for 2023, paired with questions and music she was exploring with at the time. At this event, she will be selling copies of “Digizine” and customized “Lucky Lighters.” Proceeds will be donated towards the Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund.
