More of Trackie McLeod @trackiemcleod for SP#9 ❤️⁠ “Boys will be…what we teach them to be.” Trackie McLeod @trackiemcleod turns the everyday into pop-art proclamations, where Nokia 3310 nostalgia meets queered masculinity, and DIY ethos collides with city-wide billboards. From Glasgow backstreets to Charleston exhibition halls, his work talks, teases, and reminds us who we were, who we are, and who we might yet become.⁠ _⁠ Interview by Kate Lawson @kate_lawson ⁠ Photography by Alex James @alexjamesaylin ⁠ _⁠ #ShadowplayMagazine⁠ #BehindTheBlindsArt⁠ #TrackieMcLeod⁠

More of Thomas Kiesewetter's work, featuring in SP#9 ❤️ ⁠ To encounter a sculpture by Thomas Kiesewetter is to step into motion itself — where form refuses symbolism and imagination slips beyond the real. His works don’t represent movement; they are movement: absolute, free, and endlessly beginning again. Like a jazz improvisation, each piece lives in the instant and never repeats itself. Discover more in our visit to the artist’s studio in SHADOWPLAY 9.⁠ _⁠ Thomas Kiesewetter is captured in his studio by Jan Philipzen @janphilipzen ⁠ Text by Emilie Pischedda @emilie_pischedda ⁠ _⁠ #ShadowplayMagazine⁠ #BehindTheBlindsArt⁠ #ThomasKiesewetter⁠

More of Tish Weinstock @tishweinstock ❤️⁠ ⁠ The reign of the goth queen. Shadowplay meets Tish Weinstock @tishweinstock — editor, author, and lifelong outsider — to talk moody icons, growing old disgracefully, motherhood, rebellion and finding humour in the dark.⁠ From Morticia Addams to Mazzy Star, from Substack confessions to towering cathedrals, Tish reminds us that Gothicism isn’t a costume — it’s a mindset: personal freedom, self-expression and a refusal to glow politely.

We step into Nick Coutsier @nickcoutsier ’s space to witness the beginning of something more personal. What started as an idea is now Volt — the first chapter of a three-part project, recently presented at the Bozar museum @bozarbrussels in Brussels.⁠ ⁠ For years, Coutsier’s work has moved between dance, fashion and music — collaborating with choreographers like Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Damien Jalet, and artists such as Beyoncé and Robyn.⁠ ⁠ Now, he turns inward, bringing these worlds together into something more vulnerable. What emerges is not just a project but a process — an invitation to connect, reflect, and move through chaos rather than trying to escape it.⁠ ⁠ Read our full conversation in link in bio! ⁠ _⁠ Interview by Hanna Pallot @hanna_pallot ⁠ Pictures by Nikola Lamburov @nikolalamburov ⁠ Fashion by Jozef Wright @deluxewhore _⁠ #ShadowplayMagazine⁠ #BehindTheBlindsArt⁠ #NickCoutsier⁠

More of our exclusive cover story Something Like Couture, captured by and styled by Antonino Cafiero @antoninocafiero and Brando Prizzon @brandoprizzon . ⁠ ⁠ Left alone in a palace forgotten by time, he’s finding comfort in the finest things in life. A pleated cape acts as a security blanket, while a silk robe holds the magical powers of a Proustian madeleine – vividly transporting him right to the era of grandeur he once knew so well. ⁠ See the all story in SHADOWPLAY 9.⁠ _⁠ Photography by Antonio Cafiero @antoninocafiero ⁠ Fashion by Brando Prizzon @brandoprizzon ⁠ Production by Angels Production @angelsproduction.ltd ⁠ Casting by Ikki Casting @ikki_casting ⁠ Featuring Pierrick Gregoire @pierrick.gregoire at Select Models @selectmodelparis ⁠ Hair by Roger Cho @rogercho2000 ⁠ Make-Up by Andrey Sebaoun @andreysebaoun ⁠ Set Design by Rebecca Ilse @reebeccailse ⁠ Photographer’s assistant Giacomo Queirolo @giacomo_queirolo ⁠ Stylist’s assistants Eléonore Cochener @eleonore.cochener and Vincenzo Trionfo @trionfofineovincenzo ⁠ _⁠ #ShadowplayMagazine⁠ #BehindTheBlindsArt⁠

More of Amanda Lepore for SP#9 ❤️⁠ When an architect met a diva. Amanda Lepore @amandalepore doesn’t just get dressed — she drafts herself. Lavender corsetry with structural integrity, mirrors as collaborators, perfume as prelude. From club-world myth to front-row fantasy, our next cover star turns self-invention into an art practice and nightlife into choreography. Architecture, body, night: all perfectly aligned. See the all story in print.⁠ _⁠ Amanda Lepore @amandalepore ⁠ Interview by Ibrahim Kombarji @nimportekii ⁠ Photography by Myrthe Giesbers @myrthegiesbers ⁠ Fashion by Stefania Chekalina @velvetgripstyle ⁠ Production by Olga Ush at All Good Productions @allgood_nyc ⁠ Production Manager Pania Kirilina @pania_kirillina ⁠ Hair & Make-Up by Amanda Lepore @amandalepore ⁠ Set Design by Chelsea & Zack Maruskin @chelseamaruskin ⁠ Photographer’s assistants Teaghan Rohan @teaghanrohan and Naea Lovay⁠ Stylist’s assistants Emma Foley, Kerry Dolan and Adlet Bermukhamedov @adletfashion ⁠ _⁠ #ShadowplayMagazine⁠ #BehindTheBlinds⁠ #AmandaLepore⁠

See more of our story with the legendary Gerard Malanga @gerard_malanga.official , a collage blending his current life with archival footage from his films, photographs, and personal stories. ⁠ In SP#9, Malanga opens the door to a life lived between verses and celluloid: from Bronx movie palaces to The Factory, from screen tests to silent films, from cats to muses. In Hudson, NY, wrapped in wind and memory, he speaks of Warhol, Edie, the Velvets, and a New York that once felt like a dream before it knew it was one. Read the full conversation in print.⁠ _⁠ Gerard Malanga is captured at his place by Ted Belton @tedbelton ⁠ Fashion & Interview by Michael Andrew Rosenberg @michaelandrewstylist ⁠ Special thanks to Gerard, Dagon James @dagonjames , David Croland @davidcroland , ⁠ Alyssa & Michael Bayer⁠ _⁠ #ShadowplayMagazine⁠ #BehindTheBlindsArt⁠ #GerardMalanga⁠

SHADOWPLAY was at Art Paris @artparisartfair , starting on the 9th of April and finishing today at the Grand Palais @le_grand_palais . Emerging artists showcased in the Promesses sector explores themes of identity and belonging through their different practices, shaped by their visions of culture, heritage, family relationships, and the perception of the self. The parcours of the 27 young galleries sparked questions about belonging and intimacy, as well as introspective journeys into the realities of the human experience. On the occasion, we did a focus on few of them who caught our eyes these last past days.⁠ Read more about the emerging scene at Art Paris via the link in bio!⁠ _⁠ Text by Carolina Benjumea @carobenjumea_ ⁠ Featuring @philippinedotreppe at @edjigallery , ⁠@chidywayne at @grege_gallery , @noahbeyene at @thebridgegallery_ , @larabloy at @galeriepaulinerenard , ⁠@yasminehadni at @african.arty , @ian.salamente at @galeriesalonh2 , @pitriewer at @reuter_bausch , @juliettelemontey at @grege_gallery and @sarfogh_ at @thebridgegallery_ ⁠ ⁠_⁠ #ShadowplayMagazine⁠ #BehindTheBlindsArt⁠ #ArtParis⁠
