This summer, we're introducing the first issue in our seasonal series, Pasiones. Focusing solely on the fiery flames of passion, we’re calling on artists, writers, poets, and photographers to explore the forces that ignite your inner flame—whether it burns with rage, radiates love, or quietly simmers with purpose. What awakens your spirit? What keeps you creating, dreaming, speaking?

Este verano, presentamos nuestro primer número temático, Pasiones. Esta es la primera de una serie con una temática basada en las cuatro estaciones. Centrándonos exclusivamente en las ardientes llamas de la pasión, hacemos un llamamiento a artistas, escritores, poetas y fotógrafos para que exploren las fuerzas que encienden su llama interior, ya arda con rabia, irradie amor o arda silenciosamente con determinación. ¿Qué despierta su espíritu? ¿Qué los hace seguir adelante?

Let this be your invitation to share the truths that live in your gut and rise up in your work. The truths that shout. The truths that whisper.

Que esta sea su invitación a compartir las verdades que viven en sus entrañas y que surgen en su trabajo. Las verdades que gritan. Las verdades que susurran. 

Questions to consider: 
       ~ What does passion mean to you in your medium?
       ~ What words, feelings, people, places, push you to do your art?       
       ~ What makes you angry, and what does that fire create in you?
       ~ What gives you hope, and how do you carry it forward through
           your work?

Preguntas a considerar:
       ~ ¿Qué significa para usted la pasión y cómo se refleja en su arte?
       ~ ¿Qué palabras, sentimientos, personas, lugares, los empujan a hacer su arte?
       ~ ¿Qué los enfada?
       ~ ¿Qué le da esperanza?

We are looking for work that reflects the breadth and depth of our lived experience, our tenderness, our rage, our joy, and our resistance.

Buscamos un trabajo que refleje la amplitud y profundidad de nuestra experiencia vivida, nuestra ternura, nuestra rabia, nuestra alegría y nuestra resistencia.

Cuéntame tu pasión.
