‘An ode to contemporary (analogue) photography’
The sophomore issue of slow photography publication Safelight Journal explores the theme Sun. 13 artists offer their own understanding of the theme, answering by way of their chosen subjects and style of analogue photography.
As well as visuals, which are the main dish here, there’s also intermittent editorial—short pieces exploring the issue’s theme, mostly poetry and notes which accompany the photography. Inside, the pages change from matt to glossy and back to matt.
