THE FRIENDS IN SOFT FOCUS PROJECT

Friends in Soft Focus is an independent art publication exploring the quiet intersections of art, photography, writing, and conversation. Each quarterly release begins with a single-word prompt, inviting contributors from around the world to respond through their own creative practice. Every edition is assembled by hand, with space left for readers to write back.
