The Drama 6 by Ami Kealoha
The Drama is a lo-fi magazine based in Virginia that covers off-the-beaten-track culture. Printed on matte stock, their most recent issue includes lush landscape photos that circumnavigate the globe by Russell Kleyn, profiles of artists and designers, exhibition and music reviews, and, in a newly added section in the back of the book, an interview with Caroline Hwang and comics by Vanessa Davis. Flipping through it is almost like meditating, a calming break from the more frenetic image-saturated pages usually found out there. You can find it at independent bookstores and magazine stores or pick it (and other artist-designed items) up at their retail counterpart The Drama Store.
