Canadian arts magazine Esse covers contemporary visual, digital and performance art from Quebec, Canada, and beyond. Its mission is ‘to publish a socially engaged magazine by addressing ethical reflections and the major changes that result.’ This latest issue, themed ‘Decay’, draws parallels between the breakdown of organic and inorganic matter and the disintegration of political and economic systems. Esse shifts the lens from disgust, loss and mourning to the potential for regeneration. Inside, discover artists working across painting, photography, sculpture, digital mediums, and more. esse.ca
