Parker by Peter Klett is a 20 page risograph printed zine by artist Peter Klett. Published in 2019 by Martian Press, this zine contains black and white drawings of faces and figures. Klett uses portraiture in order to explore a range of emotive gestures. Figures, both distinct and vague, transport the viewer to specific psychological spaces of melancholy, humor, excitement, and introversion.
