The Invisible Hand is a zine by Lara Luna Bartley. It shares a journey of thought that evolves through interactions with people, texts, films and even a compost heap. Beginning as an invitation to the MoneyLab community to share their sightings of ‘The Invisible Hand’, the materiality and voice of this work tells a story of hidden networks, labour and care that sustain current economic realities. In doing so, it invites us to think about the myths and magic that underpin our neo-liberal capitalist present.
We invite you to enjoy the performative dimensions of this work by downloading and following the instructions to make the zine here.
For those who are time poor, you can purchase one of Lara’s handmade zines, here.
