PHOTOSYNTHESIS
OUR FOURTH ISSUE: CHURCH OF THE HOLLOW SPIDER
Issue 4: Church of the Hollow Spider
"This issue is quite different from anything this magazine has done before. Namely, there is only one artist featured and they pretty much had full control over theme, messaging, and contents.
The following is almost akin to a journal, but in a style reminiscent of Out of the Silent Planet, Welcome to Nightvale, and WandaVision, all combined into one incredible method of storytelling through collage. The stories are written in a way that feels almost eerie. At times you wonder, is the author a ghost? Is this story from another timeline? Who is telling the story right now? HOW are you telling this story right now? You just…have to read on. It might raise more questions than answers, but you have to read on. This otherworldly whispering of humorous, dark, and shocking tales is sure to be a unique experience."

For me, collages manage to - it satisfies all of my madness, like I'm able to make these obsessive things, but then I'm also able to make these very strong statements. I don't know what they mean to other people, but in my mind, they have a very strong particular resonance; there's sort of a power.
