Info:
SMUT Press is a collective print-publishing project founded in early 2022 by Jordan Hearns & Jack Scollard. Developing from a number of collaborative projects across audio/visual, installation and publications, SMUT Press was founded to spotlight, support and commission artists to produce printed matter, with a particular focus on platforming queer artists.
Since its inception, SMUT Press have released eight publications and collaborated with a series of artists, writers, DJs and designers. Work by the press has been profiled by i-D, DJ Mag, The Face, Polyesterzine, Butt Magazine, HERO and The Irish Times, amongst others. The press regularly attends fairs and have exhibited at Paris Ass Book Fair, GLUE, Bound Art Book Fair, Athens Art Book Fair, Inventory, Artist Self-Publishing Fair, and Tsundoku Art Book Fair, amongst others.
The project has since expanded beyond the primary domain of publishing to also include events to coalesce and connect the communities the project is situated; between nightlife and artistic production. The events usually take place on a quarterly basis in a variety of different venues.
