Blue Magazine Issue II

I am the Editor, Designer & Primary Photography of Blue Magazine, a print publication with the ethos of celebrating Black beauty. Issue II explores the theme 'The Muse', a reclamation of the Black gaze. The issue has the shares the same title as Anna Fearon's first short film, 'The Muse'. This issue of Blue Magazine shares similar themes, and explores the role of the Black photographer in decolonising the camera and taking power over a visual medium that for so long has been weaponised against us, and of defining our own narratives and centring our gaze. Emphasising the importance of being seen, through our own lenses.
