Netherlands-based arts and culture publication Simulacrum explores a different theme with every issue. Platforming topics from both historical and contemporary perspectives, their features are written by both established experts and up-and-coming writers (student writers are welcome here).
Formerly petite, this latest issue sees the magazine reshaped into a new tall and slim format, held together with a rubber band and a riso red cover. On the theme, Borders, the team write:
‘Borders are deeply rooted entities. Even when borders apply to conflict elsewhere, they can affect us personally and concern us on a daily basis. Boundaries are linked to our formation of identity, contain an everyday complexity, and are anything but superficial - a border can be unfolded thoroughly... Within different worlds, we question them from a distance or, on the contrary, from the inside. We want to understand what a border does, where it lies and how it came to be.’
