SHIFT: THE VINTAGE VICES BOOK
Photography, poetry and street art on the culture of the road. Printed to be kept, passed on and argued about.
NOT A MAGAZINE. A COLLECTOR OBJECT.
Each volume pairs five photographers with poets and street artists. The photographer makes the image, the poet gives it a voice and the artist answers it on a wall. Every chapter becomes a conversation between the road, the street and the page.
It is about the people, places and objects that make a life feel like yours. Shot across the road trips, our nights out and the garages, studios and streets of the people who wear Vintage Vices.
INSIDE A VOLUME
A fixed structure so every volume feels like part of a set, with room for each issue's story.
- The letter – A short opening note from the founders.
- Five chapters – Each one a photographer, a poet and a street artist on one theme.
- The Road – The journal of that season's road trip: route, numbers and a few words from the people who came.
- The Table – A long dinner, a recipe and the conversation that came with it.
- Objects – Records, watches, tools and garments worth keeping.
- Members – Garages, rooms and roads sent in by members from every state.
