FROM THE CURRENT ISSUE

THE ROOT OF IT ALL

Our cover features Ali Elmacı’s Dudaklarimi Öp, Kalbimi Hançerle VII (Kiss My Lips, Dagger My Heart VII) (2021), part of a series that portrays institutions of power and figures of authority with a brand of humour that is by turns dark and playful, commenting on sociopolitical injustices. In this issue, Smoke and Mirrors, we highlight artists who seek to understand and critique the world around us through satire and the absurd, magic and mythology, and folklore and rituals.
