Issue 13 – Summer/Fall 2026

Edges

This issue is about edges. Not only the visible kind, a shoreline or a treeline, but the places where one thing is in the process of turning into another. Across essays, portfolios, and conversations, ten photographers work at those boundaries: a sea that is disappearing, a forest taking back what people built in it, the shape a bird leaves behind in the air.

Inside This Issue

Essays and photo stories exploring chance, intuition, and the subtle moments that shape how we see.

Wonder and Guilt at the Dead Sea

By Ilan Shacham

Shacham photographs a sea that is drying up, and writes about the discomfort of finding that beautiful. The images become a record of something that will not be there much longer.

Ornithographies and Fluctus

By Xavi Bou

Bou makes visible what the eye cannot hold, the full path a bird traces through the air rendered as a single continuous shape. Alongside the Ornithographies, new colour work from Fluctus and the story of how those images came back after he thought they were lost.

Where Stone Returns to Earth

By Enrico Fossati

Fossati works in forests that are taking back the buildings people left behind. The essay sits with the slow, patient edge between what was made and what is reclaiming it.

A Look Inside

Essays, photo stories, and quiet spaces designed for slow reading.
