‘Urban erotic encounters’
Sharing the sexual fantasies encountered in the daily life and work of artists and other cultural producers.
Inside, discover diary-like short stories on intimate moments and a common flowing thread dedicated to personal encounters with cities: sidewalks and street corners conjure vignettes from an estranged relationship, sweet glances are exchanged in a supermarket, and a workplace romance burgeons. Elsewhere, Daniela Veloz takes to the streets of Santiago amidst the dead of winter, tracing ‘the city’s erotic pulse’ during the coldest season; Linda Zhengová showcases a portfolio of nude and sensual photographs, including this issue’s cover image; critical theorist McKenzie Wark takes readers on a walking tour of NYC, visiting locations central to downtown’s history of trans fem performance, in a reprint of a special commission for the 2025 Performa Biennial; and find interviews with the likes of Dominican artist and choreographer Isabel Lewis, Chinese ecoqueer artist Zheng Bo, and Japanese novelist Jose Ando.
