Issue 05: Underbelly. A journey into ‘living softly’ through art, mindset, and connection. From producer Vegyn’s auditory take on melancholic optimism, to the word ‘innovation’ giving artist Maya Man the ick, to artist Juliet Altmann allowing us into her poetic process via a bespoke generator, those featured in these pages remind us that tenderness is our tool. Underbelly features expressions of sincerity that propel us outside ourselves, and into new futures. This issue is read vertically, with cascading design bound together transparently by a soft blue thread. Within the 170mm x 80mm magazine, readers participate in a flipbook style animation by artist Gaia Alari, with additional moving page numbers and quotes. Deckled edges encapsulate the magazine, embellishing the reader experience with a symbolic, feathery texture.
