Large-format Mousse gives a platform to international criticism of contemporary culture, commissioning essays and artwork each issue. This Summer 2025 issue considers the definition of ‘regions’, questioning and stretching the meaning in order to disrupt colonial notions of nationhood. Inside, discover a comprehensive survey of Berlin-based art collective Slavs and Tatars, a feature on the futuristic documentaries of the Filipina-Canadian artist Stephanie Comilang, as well as the Chinese artist Shafei Xia in conversation with curator, author and art historian Danielle Shang, discussing the influence of Chinese erotic paintings from the Ming and Qing dynasties on Xia’s own contemporary practice. Plus, in a section printed on uncoated paper and designed by the studio Lamm & Kirch, you’ll find Fiction, Criticism and this issue’s ‘Thinker’, Asada Raza, reflecting on Édouard Glissant’s definition of ‘créolisation’. moussemagazine.it
