EYE Magazine 108

“Plastikcomb magazine looks back to 1990s graphics with stylish aplomb … and a focus on contemporary collage-makers. For anyone who remembers the 1990s, Plastikcomb is a fascinating novelty. The magazine, which aims to fuse art with graphic design, launched in 2020 and has published eight bi-annual issues to date. At first sight it looks like an homage to the David Carson era by some bedazzled members of Generation Z out to embrace a cool, less processed, more chaotic aesthetic. I have observed for myself Ray Gun’s appeal to a minority of naturally rebellious contemporary design undergraduates who also admire 1970s punk graphics. Could it be that mangled typography and pulverised layouts are on the cusp of some kind of revival?”
