Issues
Issue 1
Safe Place
The magazine’s theme explores the notion of a safe place, leading individuals to question where they find their security in. During such a crazy period as COVID-19 and nationwide lockdowns, this pandemic certainly left many individuals feeling vulnerable, lost, and afraid. During times when everything around us seems to be going from bad to worse, the only thing to do is to tap into whatever it is that makes us feel guarded, this can be a thought, a memory, a person, a specific object, or a particular place/ space.
The magazine features the work of five diverse African Photographers like kyle malanda and her project ‘ABSENTIA’, Nelson Owoicho and his project ‘Oyálé’, Léa Thijs and her project ‘Safe House', KC Nwakalor and his project ‘Isolating With You Malichá’ and lastly Isabel Okoro and her project ‘Sister x3’.
Issue 2
Aftermath
Aftermath is defined as ‘the consequences or after-effects of a significant unpleasant event. We are in a period of Aftermath. The Aftermath of a global pandemic such as COVID-19 constituted a worldwide lockdown. The Aftermath of climate change and the possibility of humanity becoming extinct if we don't act now. The Aftermath of civil unrest in various parts of the world, and the list goes on.
For issue 2, we invited African Photographers to explore the theme ‘Aftermath’ by submitting a body of work that represented the after-effects of a significant event. We featured projects from 9 African Photographers, namely: Oke Oluwasegun, Leila Bakouche, Issam Larkat, Kairu Phillip Peter, Hiba Zouane, Liasmine Fodil, Amine Machitouen, David Exodus, and Eyoeal Kefyalew.
Issue 3
JOY!
Reflecting on the fact that it’s been a rough couple of years, from adjusting to life after the Covid-19 pandemic to the cost-of-living crisis, political upheaval in various countries and numerous conflicts across the globe. With all the current and impending doom and gloom in front of us, it can be tricky to look on the bright side of things. In this Issue, we highlight the spirit of resilience in the face of hardship and complexity. JOY! - with an intentional exclamation mark, encourages image makers to look for the little (or big) joys that can be encountered in everyday life, whether it’s the ability to wake up every morning, the moments of joyful solidarity, or a celebratory event.
For issue 3, we invited African Photographers to explore the theme JOY! by submitting a body of work that represents what this word meant to them. We define joy as a feeling of great pleasure or happiness. We featured work from six photographers; Andile Bhala, Francis Ogunyemi, Jean-Yves Gauze, Kaumba Badru, Kelsy Macuacua and Youssef Sebti.
