VOL 29 ISSUE 2: SHIFT

A SHIFT IN TIME - A SHIFT IN PLACE - A SHIFT IN SEASON

EDITOR’S NOTE:

The shift in time, a shift in seasons, a shift in mindset and perspective; having something shifted may be scary and unstable, but it can also bring many new experiences that will add to your repertory. As an artist, it’s essential to shift when it’s too dull, stuck, and slow. Embrace the moment you are living in, embrace your happiness and sadness, be present, and absorb the moment, keeping to yourself every second. And, when those seconds are shifted into a minute, you might have answers that will come with questions for the minutes that will be shifted into hours.

From, Marcela

DREAMS:

Echo from 2022.04.18 by Jingyao Huang

(after Marni Ludwig)

by Adelia Du

Let’s run to the woods what do you dream of? I soak in the ink of your eyes and wish I could sneak visions of bliss into your mind without you knowing. Dried flowers and moss for breakfast, we feed each other empty promises but that’s okay you whisper asleep in the evening curled like a cat on the cold floor while I am looking out for wolves and search parties which are all that remain of home.
