DOPAMINE isn’t just the “pleasure molecule.” It’s the molecule of anticipation.

Issue 26 brings together two electrifying covers that take the dopamine dive from Sadiq Desh captured by Cris Cerdeira to multidisciplinary visual artist and photographer Tomás Pintos’ cover story, Besos hasta agotar stock (Kisses Until Sold Out), developed from the live performance, creating a space where glamour
meets exhaustion.

We search for the right balance of the happy hormone through a series of in-depth interviews with designers to contemporary artists using various mediums, including Achilles Ion Gabriel (creative director at CAMPER), Charles Jeffrey, Ela Fidalgo, Emeric Tchatchoua, Gabriele Esposito, Meryll Rogge, Perfume Genius,
Théodore, Agoston, and Hijiri of Carne Bollente. What they all of in common, is a search and will to live their authentic artistic selves.

Expanding into the neurotransmitter’s universe is fashion-driven photography by Andy Dyo, Aytekin Yalçın, Christopher Barraja, Hengyi Liang, Lander Ibarretxe, Louise Reinke, and Shengzhe.
