Featured Artists & Cover Story
The cover story of Homeward features Celeste, whose presence sets the tone for the
issue, embodying the central idea that home is not always a place to return to, but
something continuously redefined through lived experience.
Homeward unfolds through a rich group of contributors whose practices span
photography, music, visual art, poetry, film, and writing. Artists such as Sharna Swift
Starkey, Solange Smith, and Laura Bailey explore identity and self-representation, while photographers including Lucia Alonso and Claudia Rivera investigate memory, land, and belonging through visual narratives rooted in place and displacement. Voices like Dalia Al-Dujaili, Naomi Shimada, Yendry, Yasmin Alrabiei and Bea Dero reflect on migration, cultural inheritance, and the politics of movement, tracing personal and collective journeys across borders. Together, these contributions form a layered portrait of home as something fluid and contested — shaped by gender, geography, history, and imagination. Rather than offering a singular definition, Homeward embraces contradiction and plurality, revealing home as a space we leave, long for, resist, and ultimately rebuild within ourselves.
