On the Way to 403

On the way to 403 is a limited-edition zine that marks a departure from the Khalid's usual practice. Rather than featuring illustrations, this project explores textiles through doormats—a deliberate shift that connects to the broader textile medium while stepping into new creative territory. Each copy is fully riso printed by Full Special Studio, a process that brings distinctive texture and character to the mat designs. The riso printing technique enhances the tactile quality of the work, creating a finished piece that feels intentional and carefully crafted. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of experimental practice. Limited to fifty copies only, each zine is hand-numbered and signed by the artist, Khalid Mezaina. A tangible reminder of creative exploration and the beauty of trying something different.
