The Scourge Of Allegory: Genesis Owusu Finds Home In Reality @genesisowusu 

For years, Genesis Owusu has been building worlds to help make sense of this one.

Black dogs. Roaches. Characters that could carry the weight of real life without ever naming it directly. Allegory gave him distance from reality, a way to make it more surreal and, in some ways, more manageable.
But for his new album, REDSTAR WU & THE WORLDWIDE SCOURGE, that distance is gone.

Sitting down with the Ghanaian-Australian artist, the sincerity is palpable. “I honestly felt like in this time and space, I didn’t have the privilege to be ambiguous anymore”, he explains. “It felt like there was a wave washing over the world. Hatred, greed, far-right ideology becoming cool again. Washing over like a plague. A worldwide scourge. The album is about the here and now, the trials and tribulations and the chaos and the paranoia, but also about community, and regaining our ability to see the humanity in one another.”

Cool Stars Shine Brighter: The Public Becoming Of Cat & Calmell @catandcalmell 

Cat & Calmell’s journey towards their most authentic selves is anything but a straight line.
There’s no clean befores or afters, no magical moment where everything locks into place. The story of besties and collaborators Catherine Stratton and Calmell Teagle unfolds in real time, through the music, instinct, and vision… a process that feels somewhat public and not quite resolved.

Their latest mixtape Live Laugh Cool Star captures that transformation in action. Leaning into play, persona and pop spectacle, the project also marks a subtle but significant shift in how the duo understand themselves and their art. “We really believe that the mixtape was, like, a mini manifestation,” says Calmell.

SÔNG SỐNG SONG traces the lingering impact of dioxins, the precursors to Agent Orange, and how contamination and trauma don’t end when the “event” ends. It lives on in families, bodies and even the water.

During the talk, Aunty Kim said something that stayed with me: the war doesn’t end when it ends. Those words have never felt more relevant. She lives with the impact to this day and so do so many others.

It was an honour to photograph the opening and share that space across language and generations.

“LƯU MANH” / “HOOLIGAN”

Once used in China and Vietnam to control and oppress dissidents, lưu manh has long been a label for those who live beyond society’s rules. What is cast as deviant can also be a symbol of resistance.

This work reflects on Buddhist resistance, especially the 1963 self-immolation of Thích Quảng Đức — which Zen Master, Thích Nhất Hạnh described not as suicide but as a message: a courageous act meant to awaken society to injustice. Monastics, often imagined as detached, have risked everything — even their lives — in pursuit of liberation for all.

Buddhism has always held a power governments feared: not violence, but freedom. I wouldn’t call myself a Buddhist, but the lessons I’ve learnt through exposure have shown me presence and clarity. It’s the refusal of dogma and the pursuit of truth that I mess with. This image and idea is often seen in a fixed way, but I wanted to show it through my eyes: compassion as power.

our hearts are full.
we’re so proud of what we made together.

“THE COMEDOWN”

It’s morning. Or still night.
Hard to tell.

Ash on velvet. Lipstick on mugs.
Bad tattoos half-finished.

Everyone’s wrecked.
Beautiful in their own way.

We’re not talking because we care.
We’re talking to fill the silence.

What brought us here doesn’t matter.
What kept us here definitely shouldn’t have.

Now we’re floating off.
A little worse. A little freer.

Whatever.
It was stupid.
It was perfect.
