Issue 35
Fascinated with how we fit and exist in the world, we ask our cover artist Lindy Lee why her years of focus in Zen Buddhism is pushing new and exciting scales with her latest work. Discover how Sara Morawetz’s Mars durational performance disrupted systems in New York. Be inspired by Raymond Arnold’s 50 year devotion to Western Tasmania. We also get up close with Victoria Reichelt’s paradoxical world.
