Created by four siblings based here in Lisbon between the ages of 13 and 21, Mr. Spoqui is a family zine. Produced every two months or so, each issue is - according to the family behind it - handcrafted 'with a lot of love, creativity and non-commercial purposes'. Taking themes such as 'memories' or 'face' the zine gives the siblings opportunities to explore, question and create (in ways they can't at school), and has become a platform for collaboration not just with each other but with people all over the world. I haven't gotten a copy yet (they're all out) but am looking forward to the next issue, which looks at 'ceramic' and is due to be published at the end of the month.
