issue 09: cavity
Spring 2025 – LAYOUT DESIGNERThis issue explores how myth, storytelling, and folklore distort reality and shape societal structures. It critiques the illusion of what is considered "natural," exposing how narratives glorify capitalism, demonize social movements, and other marginalized groups. The concept of Cavity represents a surreal, in-between space that disrupts logic and clarity. This issue seeks to destabilize everyday perceptions by embracing ambiguity, challenging truth, and showing how myth undermines conventional understanding. Veracity, or truth, is intentionally disregarded in favor of imaginative disruption.
