Grain #6 Beauty

Our 6th volume explores the theme of beauty.

With this volume 6, delve into the paradox of beauty, between deconstructing injunctions and the pursuit of beauty.

How can we hack femininity injunctions and transform them into tools of emancipation? Can we aestheticize without depoliticizing, or rather, by politicizing? Can we learn to grasp life in a way other than considering it as a pretty backdrop?

This issue also features the voices of powerful women, such as Rokhaya Diallo, Françoise Vergès, Élise Thiébaut, Myriam Bahaffou, and the Minuit 12 collective. These voices speak to us about what it means for us to be alive and to assert our right to beauty in a world that often tries to steal it from us.

Through this 6th opus, we claim the right to celebrate what makes our lives beautiful, what is worth fighting for and saving.
