Linseed Journal

An ode to the linseed, each Volume of the publication is themed around an organic material with enduring cultural significance. A material which continues to nourish and inspire, at the confluence of the human and natural worlds. Volume One is titled THE APPLE: an abstract filter on culture in all its guises, from prehistory to the present. Touching on ideas from cultivation to contemporary craft, food history to linguistics. Uniting emerging and established talents, Volume One assembles over 40 contributions from almost as many countries - each offering a local stance. We welcome artists reflecting on the ecology of Mexico and Tasmania; journalists reporting from Kenya and Nova Scotia, and writers drawing from their neighbourhoods in Glasgow, New York and our own home, in East London. Find your copy in select specialist bookstores, galleries, and through our website.
