FUKT #22 – The Nature Issue

In the latest edition, we're exploring the timeless bond between drawing and the natural world. This issue brings together artists from six continents who capture nature from different perspectives. You'll find conversations on queer ecology, stories of pioneering female botanists, and reflections on how drawing can deepen our connection to the environment.

We also share personal memories tied to nature and discuss the urgent need to preserve our planet's diverse ecosystems. From the forests of the Amazon to prairies and landscapes shaped by wind and fire, this issue invites you to reconnect with the beauty and significance of the world around us.
