Bonobo Kama Sutra Zine - funny gifts - valentines - full colour original art, collage images

£9.00
The blurb of this zine reads: "Here is the world's first mini-tractate on the sexual mores of the bonobo ape. Bonobos are renowned for their sexual freedom, and present a fascinating point of contrast to the testosterone heavy, patriarchal chimpanzee society with which we are more readily familiar. Presented here for the first time are a collection of collage illustrations detailing the sexual conduct observed within bonobo social interactions."

The bonobo is sometimes referred to as a "hippie chimpanzee" (though it is recognised as a species entirely of its own right); their society is matriarchal and generally peaceful, largely because they have replaced aggression with sex.

This full-colour, 28 page zine is a collaboration between myself, Daisy Jordan, and Ulysses Black (you can find his etsy page here! - https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/UlyssesBlack?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=715547657)

It is a humorous, playful look at the important role sex plays in bonobo society (with fascinating, true facts about bonobos), the creative positions they employ and a reflection on the boundary between ourselves and other animals.

It is printed on heavy weight, uncoated paper and the pages have the look of old parchment. It is A5 sized.

With illustrations by Daisy Jordan
Design by Ulysses Black
Text by both, and inspired by the research of Professor Frans De Waal.

[Please note - Some products may be subject to import taxes and custom duty fees after arriving in the country of destination. Whilst I do my best at my end to avoid these, all import duties and taxes are the responsibility of the buyer, so please be aware of this when buying internationally!]


Thanks so much for visiting and I hope you enjoy my shop! :)
