CURA ISSUE, AUTUMN/WINTER 2024

We’re delighted to present our eightennth issue, ‘CURA’, for Autumn/Winter 2024.

With our new theme CURA, we are in search of compelling stories and artistic expressions that highlight the multifaceted nature of care—focusing on how we emotionally adapt to rapid changes in the world. This includes a special emphasis on the experiences of both compulsory and non-compulsory immigration, the daily mental migrations we undertake as we navigate global events, and the process of renewal and emotional healing through art.

Our cover story ‘Vaulted Ceiling, Painted Sky’ features the fashion special for Prada Autumn/Winter 2024-25 Collection, shot by Ethan Hart and styled by Nilo Akbari.
