@duppyprojects is a newspaper in negative: pages saturated in black ink, with text printed in white. This limited-edition publication from @josephdouglaselmhirst takes its title from the Jamaican Patois term for a ghost and explores – through photography and conversations with @alvarobarrington, @eastwindscove.jamaica, @devonncharlesfrancis and others – how Jamaica’s past has shaped artistic practices across the Black diaspora. “In a country that has such a complex history as Jamaica, but so little of it recorded, it feels really important to create something tangible,” says Joseph, who was inspired by the archives of newspapers and journals such as Savacou, Hot Spice and the West Indian Gazette. “I wanted the fragility of the newsprint to reflect the fragility of preservation in that region.” He worked with graphic designer @bryce.carrington to bring a “gothic sensibility” to the newspaper and wax-pencil illustrations by Violet Hoppe (@hoppppppeeeee) materialise like apparitions across the pages. 📰 Printed on our midi newspapers on 55gsm improved newsprint. Duppy is available now at duppyprojects.com and at the following stockists: Jamaica: @nationalgalleryofjamaica London: @bcaheritage Lagos: @alaralagos Paris: @1909.bookstore Melbourne: @fiendbookshop

Here is a look at #DUPPY, out now via @duppyprojects & printed by @newspaperclub. “In a country that has such a complex history as Jamaica, but so little recorded history, it feels important to create something tangible. Working with @newspaperclub to bring DUPPY to life made that possible.” said DUPPY Director and Co-Editor @josephdouglaselmhirst. Bringing together original contributions from a dynamic community of artists, writers, and cultural thinkers like @alvarobarrington @jawaraalleyne, @isatbuchanan, @chiefrichardcurrie, @rachelleighscott of @diotima.world, @rubyelmhirst, @devonncharlesfrancis, @lucakhouri, #JovanScottLewis, @daniellehmyers, @thekadsmeow, and @eastwindscove.jamaica, DUPPY reflects the ghosts of the past by connecting those whose practices intersect with it, while simultaneously informing a liberated vision of the future. “I wanted the design of the book to mirror its gothic sensibility. It’s a collection of ghost stories. Newspaper Club’s Midi format enabled full-bleed printing to bring this concept to life, allowing each story to flow seamlessly from page to page” shared Joseph. “The design of Duppy is informed by the stories it holds. By reclaiming and queering established design principles, the publication reimagines familiar visual languages as something distinctly our own. This approach echoes the history of the Black diaspora, where inherited cultures, traditions, and systems have long been adapted, transformed, and redefined beyond the confines of whiteness” shared @bryce.carrington, DUPPY’s graphic and layout designer. Inspired by chalk illustrations, Duppy was hand illustrated. “The illustrations tie together the stories, while emphasizing the harmonious quality of each contributor” says @josephdouglaselmhirst. “To create these portraits and illustrations I used a white wax pencil, charcoal, and black paper as the background for the drawings. Instead of sketching the outline, and shading in the darker points, I tried to pull the images from the shadows. Drawing only the light and working with the values. It was an enjoyable process that flexed my artistic muscles.” says Duppy’s illustrator, Violet Hoppe @hoppppppeeeee
