This issue is an ode to our most tactile sense, and the one we missed the most this past year (2020). Touch, as you’ll see in these pages, takes many forms, from the constrictive pleasure of Shibari, to the proper way to give (and receive) a hug, to the chemical reaction of static shock. It’s also a measure of skill and a mode of communication—both in this world and beyond. Creative-, Art Direction and Design in collaboration with Kristina Bartošová. Cover comes in five colorways, foil stamp on flocked paper stock.
