Here's an all-new, eight-color, 44-page, 8" x 10" risograph from Christina Lee (aka Xtina), whose work will be familiar to any who have spent time browsing the MADE IN PITTSBURGH table at the Copacetic shop, as we stocked all (or close to it) of her numerous publications over the years. In two short pieces – "I Can Be Anything You Want Me To Be" and "Employee of the Month" – along with the more substantial "Superfan", Lee confronts the vicissitudes of female fame and fortune – as well as the lack thereof. The anxieties and fears that lay dormant within dreams are activated in the deceptively bright color pages of this limited*, hand-numbered edition, working to show that a bright surface may be employed to hide a darkness within...

And we're giving this one an honorary "Made in Pittsburgh" designation despite the fact that it was actually produced in NYC, due to Christina's long tenure in town.
