    January 27, 2025
    by Lhya Munive

    TW: Depression, death, suicide When the director of Mississippi Prison Writing Louis Bourgeois contacted our magazine for possible coverage of Unit 29: Writing from Parchman Prison, a collection of personal vignettes and poems written by men incarcerated at Mississippi State Penitentiary, we were beyond honoured to take upon his request.

    by Francisca Figueiras Meinedo

    In the most privileged way possible, the past few years I have been entangled in webs of grief and having to navigate it a few countries away. Twice I have boarded a plane knowing I was landing on a funeral. Twice, I have managed to swerve away from the questions from curious seatmates regarding my…

    by Robin van Minnen

    When I try to trace back the moment I first realised how much I enjoyed drawing and painting, I always settle on the art classes I took at Artis when I was still in primary school. The zoo here in Amsterdam has a special programme called ‘Artis Ateliers’ which is meant to offer the city’s…
