Submissions are open for
Issue 2
closing September 15th
Rosalind is an artistic science magazine; while prose, art and poetry are welcomed, these must have a loose connection to science in some way. Embroidered histology, family trees, poetry full of blood and bone metaphors, prose with characters named after chemicals, the science behind manifestation…
Connection to science has infinite interpretations, be creative!
Have a look at Rosalind’s Instagram or Issue 1 for inspiration!
