INBETWEEN MAGAZINE - OPEN CALL
We are so giddy to announce an open call for our first ever InBetween Magazine. For our first issue, we are asking you to muse on the theme of ADORNMENT.
An act practiced across centuries and cultures, pieces passed down from generation to generation, we ask you to explore this theme in whichever medium you choose. We call for essays, articles, artworks, poems, photography series, and more!
Send us a short pitch by June 2nd to [email protected] outlining your ideas! We will be there to support you in your creative process, as we co-create this magazine together!
Lots of love from the InBetween Team 🌟

Just a little teaser before we announce the theme, this beautiful picture is from the Merian September 1993 issue. Open call and theme will be announced this week!
We’re a month on from the supper club we hosted at @nourishedcommunities
It was a beautiful night sharing books and meeting new people; @marta.calore made delicious food, Meg bopped about and @hazyagency.co did the most wonderful designs.
We’re hungry (!) for more - so watch this space for the next supper club… coming this summer 🤪😍❤️
Thanks to everyone who came to eat, chat and share stories with us 💞
Our residency at @floatinguniversity in September 2024. We had a beautiful time at this natureculture learning site, a world within a world in the heart of Berlin. We send a lot of love to the team who made us feel so welcome, and continue to fight to keep this space one where learning takes place outside of institutional and reductionist modes of thinking.
While there, we mused on multi species collabortion, working with Anna Tsing’s notion of the arts of noticing. @monthemountain recorded and produced a soundscape of our time there, we invite you to take a listen on our website!
Our Inbetween Camera Trail is so back! Take part in our annual collaborative photography project, where you can muse on all things ADORNMENT. This project will be featured in our upcoming magazine, wherein a wonderful team of artists, writers, and researchers have joined forces to explore adornment practices.
How can we reclaim our pieces from being fetishized and commodified? How do local communities revive their land-based adornment practices? How do those in the diaspora use adornment pieces to carry on their heritage? How can looking to the past teach us to go beyond consumerism and instead sow practices of craftsmanship, of slowness, of storied objects?
Here’s how it works:
1) Sign up via the form in our bio with all required information.
2) Wait for your parcel, which will include a film camera and a journal.
3)Take a few pictures and muse on them, whether it be context, through process, or prose.
4) Package it all up again and send it off to the next person!
DM us if you have any questions, we look forward to co-creating this with you all 🤎
The team is assembling and the pages are turning! It’s time to continue our magazine on all things ADORNMENT.
Join us on March 29th for a workshop at our new studio space. It will be a Sunday for gathering and musing; the only thing you need to bring is a piece of adornment that is special to you and tell us all about it!
Snacks and tea will be provided.
Led by @karmamuses & @memoriavictoria
DM us to register 🤎
Come and have dinner with us! 🍽️ 💞
We’re hosting an evening of book swapping, great chats and yummy food this March at Nourished Communities 💫
You can grab your ticket at the link in our bio - see you there!
The name for the event, The Gathering House, is inspired by the Scottish Gaelic word, ceilidh. A ceilidh house would be where the community would come to share stories, sing songs and dance. We want to bring a little of this community magic to London 🌸
Hosted by @monthemountain and @marta.calore
Beautiful, beautiful designs by @hazyagency.co@juliet_dsouza
‼️URGENT‼️ we're raising funds to support a Congolese artist relocated to safety.
Due to them receiving threats from genocidal forces, they urgently need to go to a safer Area.
Thanks to all your generous donations they were able to start their Journey, get a passport and provide for basic needs such as food and shelter.
Now they need to get on a flight ASAP, as life is getting more complicated for them where they are now.
We had to make a new moneypool, since the old one was expired and due to safety concerns they will remain anonymous.
Please continue to support us through donations and sharing as this is an urgent matter🤎
In memory of Fathi Ghaben..
yesterday I watched an interview of the artist Sliman Mansour (2006) and learned about his friend Fathi Ghaben who was also a Palestinian artist and educator, known for his paintings that depicted Palestinian culture, resistance, and the right of return.
Ghaben’s art often captured everyday life of working-class people under occupation.
He was one of the first artists to paint the Palestinian flag — resisting the suppression of Palestinian identity. This led to his arrest by Israeli occupation forces in 1984 and the confiscation of seven of his works. The expression of Palestinian identity through art was and still is considered a threat to the Zionist identity.
Fathi Ghaben was born in the village of Hirbiya in the Gaza Strip 1947, one year before the declaration of the establishment of the Israeli state. The following year 1948 during the Nakba, his village was subdistrict, occupied and depopulated by Zionists forces to establish settlements. Like the 750,000 Palestinians forced from their homes Ghaben also had to flee with his family into Jabaliya camp in Gaza.
He lost his son and grandson in this genocide. On February 25, 2024 he was killed by the occupation because they denied him permission to leave Gaza for medical treatment he urgently required.
Interview (2008) with Fathi Ghaben:

Art and resistance in Palestine remind me of my friend Bilal (@art.bilal_raamadan ) and many other artists who refuse to stop expressing themselves, who continue building and rebuilding everything that the occupation tries to destroy while living under constant threat, bombardment and occupation. May peace be upon them. Long live Palestinian resistance! 🎨
