Full Bleed 06
The materials issue
Our new issue includes work by over three dozen artists, poets, essayists, and fiction writers. Their contributions explore the aesthetic potential of all manner of materials—from traditional media like bronze and textiles to living organisms like algae and fungi, to the stuff of daily life—lottery cards, laundry, and spoons. The issue also features the fruits of our recent collaboration with the Phillips Collection--a showcase of ekphrastic poetry by DC-area writers inspired by Pour, Tear, Carve, an exhibition at the museum that considers how materials act as conduits of meaning. Enjoy, and thank you for reading!
