The artists featured in this issue form a particular kind of river—one that celebrates building individual agency through channels of collective support and discourse (L. Frank talks about “holding hands through time”). Lineage and histories of thought flow to support these artists’ work of anatomizing dogmatic and limiting narratives, reinventing structures in the process—pushing always toward something new.
