All forms welcome.
Postscript is an online magazine that publishes social and cultural narratives which are usually allocated to the footnotes. We push readers to leave their comfort zones, to go beyond what they know, to be culturally curious and compassionate. We accept all forms of writing, visual art, and digital media that expand our own understanding of intersectional and cosmopolitan discourse.
You go to a footnote to find a specific detail, a more complex story. That is why we are Postscript: we are interested in giving space to non-mainstream perspectives that would otherwise be an afterthought. We hope to establish a community of emerging writers and artists who create work that is destabilizing, restless, and nuanced.
Postscript’s ethos involves putting artworks and texts, and various other mediums, in conversation with each other to spark new dialogues. Each text is paired with either an artwork by another contributor or an illustration made by our team, invoking a sense of browsing through a gallery space or exhibition where works are placed in dialogue with each other. Our editors and curators choose pieces that can stand alone, but also interact with other pieces in the issue to foster new perspectives upon the issue theme.
Postscript was established in Paris in March 2018 and is currently based in the UAE. We work with contributors from around the world.
New issues are published on the first Monday of each month.
