Vol 02 Motion

In Vol 02: Motion, we want to explore what it means to move and to be moved—across time, space, worlds, and circumstances. Why do people move? How does art communicate across mediums to open our eyes to the world? As that which sustains us, do we value or relationship with water? What does it mean to raise our hands to the heavens and prostrate on the earth? What happens when we lose our ability to move?

Motion features poetry, photography, and reflections on the human relationship with nature, and one another.

This issue also includes interviews with Singapore’s principal storyteller Kamini Ramachandran, veteran angklung music instructor Faridah Jamal, and plant medicine expert Ajuntha Anwari.
