LUCHA LIBRE ZINE
This zine explores the identity of Mexican wrestlers and their iconic masks. It looks
into their family roots, the weight of memory, and the leaps of faith they take
throughout their lives.
The project uses different papers to tell the story: 160gsm offset, tracing
paper, and silver cardstock. Bounded with waxed thread, leaving
the ends long at the bottom to look like the untied laces of a wrestling mask.
