LIMBO magazine launches!

Today is the launch of LIMBO! This is my first time as full Editor and I’m very proud.

LIMBO upends the traditional publishing model with a not-for-profit approach, distributing all profits from advertising and issue sales directly to the contributors featured in the magazine and the staff who produce it.

The inaugural issue features art, ideas, and humour born out of the global lockdown but looking beyond it. The result is perhaps the ultimate time capsule of the 2020 crisis, as seen through the eyes of some of the most creative people in the world. It offers hope, laughs, and a vision for the way forward.

Published by Nick Chapin, edited by me and with creative direction by David Lane (The Gourmand), the large format 176 page publication is lusciously designed and overflowing with original work. LIMBO recalls 90s DIY magazines, while introducing a new aesthetic for this moment—a patchwork of diverse, expressive work, much of it created using lo-fi techniques dictated by lockdown.

A long list of A-list artists and creatives—​including Vivienne Westwood, Wolfgang Tillmans, Miranda July, Andrea Arnold, Tyler Mitchell, Collier Schorr, Ed Ruscha, and many more​—have contributed work and many waived their fees, allowing funds to go to the contributors most in need.
