Flo Low is a British-Armenian artist, graphic designer, and art educator based in Brooklyn. They use printmaking and textile to explore the figures and landscapes of the past, how they shape us and how we shape them in response to loneliness and alienation. In their practice, they gather found fragments that give us a glimpse into the layered history around us, including city typography, which they have published as the NYC ABCs, and Armenian food history, published as Recipes from a Free Artsakh. Inspired by the children they work with, their ongoing project Bags for Life plays with form and function through designing and making single-purpose (but not single use) bags. 


A cookbook for a free Artsakh


Riso-printed zine of vegetarian Armenian recipes

publication editorial design illustration Recipes from a Free Artsakh is a collection of vegetarian recipes, contributed by Armenians and our friends, telling our history: of the lands we belong to, have passed through, have made our own; of gatherings, celebrations and mourning. 

From a cocktail in the garden, to jingyalov hats dreaming of Artsakh mountain herbs, to envisioning our future over coffee cups: this cookbook is the story of Armenians and our friends, of the lands we have been in, where we have stayed and passed through, where we have called home.

I designed, illustrated and edited this collection of recipes. Printed by risograph in red and blue ink, bound in red wiro, with the help of Hato Press and Spun Press, with paper from G.F Smith and finishing by Radclyffe Printers. It has had two print runs of 400 copies overall. I built an audience through email, social media campaigns and a dinner event attended by 50 people in London. So far I have sold 300 copies and raised £1650 for refugees fleeing ethnic cleansing in the region. 

I organised and hosted a supper club at e5 Bakehouse in Hackney, London, where the book was sold. It is currently stocked at The Folkestone Bookshop.
