“DARA ZINE” by Cruz Valdez and Dara launched at Climax Books, followed by an afterparty at Monsieur in NYC
Photographer Cruz Valdez launches “DARA ZINE”, a 42-page collaboration with Dara, model and Fashion Director of Interview Magazine. Inspired by Valdez’s fascination with vintage cinema ephemera, the zine captures their decade-long friendship through portraits of fantasy and desolation, blending fairytale and sci-fi to explore feminine resilience.
