OOMK (one of my kind) is an artist collective based in London, UK, with a focus on publishing, operated by Sofia Niazi, Rose Nordin and Heiba Lamara.[1] They are known for the OOMK Zine, a magazine which explores "the art, ideas and activism of women."[2] Sofia Niazi and Rose Nordin formed the group in 2014, with Heiba Lamara joining at the launch of the first issue of OOMK.[3] Together, they also operate Rabbits Road Press, which is a "community and education focused risograph print studio."[4] They are currently residents at Somerset House Studios[1] with the intent to publish two "Independence" themed publications during their residency here, along with their continued work on the curation of events and discussions in regards to self-publishing.[1]
During their time at South London Gallery, and led by Sofia Niazi, OOMK worked with children aged 4–11 at Oliver Goldsmith Primary School to found The Big Family Press.[7] While OOMK no longer run The Big Family Press, it is still ongoing through South London Gallery and is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.[5]
Rabbits Road Press is a risograph printing studio and publishing press operated by the members of OOMK. Currently based at Old Manor Park Library, a community centre in London, they provide printing and book-binding services for nearby communities, artists and groups. In addition to this, Rabbits Road Press also manage and provide workshops centred around community publishing and book-binding, as well as open-access risograph printing sessions and private printing workshops.[8] They are supported by Arts Council England.
