Wonderment issue No4 The Voyeur delves into the visual style of 
snapshot photography, a new documentary style becoming more

Included in The Voyeur are 32 bound photos, a postcard and a 
letter in the form of a diary entry written to the reader.

The form investigates the familiar, the collective, the intimate and
the personal, encased in a hand casted red latex head. This issue 
pushes the boundaries of form and structure in Wonderment's radical
signature style.
