Elastic #2 | Interspecies

Inside:

Elastic, is a brand new magazine of psychedelic art and literature that, through working with artists and writers already working in the psychedelic register, presents something which broadens out the congealed definitions of psychedelia into something much wider and ... wall-less.

This second issue, titled Interspecies, asks us to look beyond human life to better understand our own place in the world. Fifty-two contributors share creative work that explores the fascinating, often blurry connections between humans, plants, animals, and fungi. Inside, you’ll read about mythic changelings, forests that seem to speak, and cattle that communicate — alongside thoughtful reflections on transformation, feeling alienated, and personal loss. The striking, imaginative artwork doesn’t stick to one look or method; instead, it thrives in the dynamic spaces where different forms, species, and perspectives come together.

Expect:

publishing art and writing that bending time, genre and perspective, Elastic conjures a truly expansive vision of psychedelic culture, bringing together a vast body of contemporary psychedelic work and paying tribute to an overlooked archive.
