"Is sport the main event or just the prop? In Issue 06, we look at how sport serves as a backdrop for social movements, community bonds, and artistic expression.
Issue 06 explores the boundary between reality and illusion in sport. From fake props to authentic performances--what's real and what's not?
We invite you into a world of thought-provoking, playful pieces through our theme of “Props.” From content and design, right through to paper stock and size, the theme runs through.
