an independent bi-annual Art Magazine with a pronounced social conscience, exploring through imagery, the Global Age in which we live and the issues that MATTER; from the marvellous to the momentous, from the messy to the maddening

Much of the content that we consume, and upon which we derive our perspective of the world is insidious. MATTER will cut through the quagmire, negotiating this complex age - finding inspiration, truth and hope amidst the disharmony, deceit and despair, calling for moments of stillness and clarity.

Along with engagement comes social, political and environmental responsibility. But how to negotiate this in the modern climate? The first step is to illuminate the issues themselves. Matter magazine is a visual feast that uses the powerful medium of photography to examine and document the subjects that matter through the eyes of artists.

Printed bi-annually, and supported by a website which will feature exclusive content and short documentary films, each issue of MATTER will invite guest editors - experts, authors and activists - to steer the conversation.

The issue will showcase both new and established talent in photography and, furthermore, each issue will feature key images that will be available to order as a print. All proceeds from the sale of these limited edition prints will be donated to a charitable organization that supports the cause highlighted by the image on offer.
