Beauty Papers #14: Unbound

What does it mean to be unbound?

It is a question we began asking when we conceived this issue. We speak constantly about freedom. Freedom of expression, freedom of identity, creative freedom, freedom to question and rebel. Yet increasingly, we observe a creative culture constrained by something else entirely: fear.

Fear of getting it wrong.
Fear of saying the wrong thing.
Fear of being misunderstood.
Fear of the comments.

That contradiction interested us because Unbound was not simply about breaking rules. It was about creating the conditions in which possibility can exist.And possibility requires freedom.

So enjoy the artistry, energy and freedom of our collaborators and their journey into unbound territory.

Adele Exarchopoulos, Arca, Britt Liberg, Casper Sejersen, Daniel Sannwald, Emma D’Arcy, Erika Lust, Greta Ilieva, Hayley Morris Cafiero, Isabelle Huppert, Jackie Nickerson, Scarlett Carlos Clarke and Vincent Gallo are some of the revellers to join the fray.

Stay curious. Stay fearless. Stay unbound
