Journal SNAP

SNAP is more than a newspaper – SNAP is a poster, a collector's item and a platform for experimentation. SNAP does not talk about art, but rather from the perspective of those who encounter it: children, young people, visitors, people. We understand communication as shared storytelling, as a space for resonance, diversity of voices and the sharing of perceptions. SNAP reveals what happens in the spaces between: a quick whisper behind a hand, an embarrassing slip-up, an unexpectedly good thought, a snap of the fingers. 
SNAP is designed by Thea Kleinhempel and appears at irregular intervals, but several times a year, and can be purchased for €2. A snap of the fingers. 

SNAP No. 1, concept: Susanne Heincke, Dec. 2025 with THE GEMS (edition of 500 copies).

*to snap: The sound produced when the thumb and finger (usually the middle or index finger) are rubbed together quickly and the finger is jerked away. It is a gesture used to attract attention, signal an idea or simply for fun. In the film Tongues Untied (Marlon Riggs, 1985), it is a powerful, liberating sign of black gay identity – a short, concise sound with multiple meanings.
