Description

ALAN GIGNOUX Tangier Island

ALAN GIGNOUX Tangier Island is a self-published zine.

Tangier Island is home to the Chesapeake Bay’s isolated community of “watermen,” who have lived off crab fishing since the mid-nineteenth century.

The island is sinking and shrinking at an alarming rate because of geological changes and rising sea levels caused by global warming. Without government support to construct sea walls, the island’s 436 residents may be the first refugees of climate change in the continental U.S.A.

Softcover zine, hand saddle stitched with orange thread, including a postcard on the front and back with perforations at the spine.

Edition of 100.
