“This series consists of photos of my family’s native country after many years away, older and more photographically inclined I began to document my retreat and the realization of a rapidly changing landscape. With a combination of landscape, portraiture found web/family photos and collage this work is a sort of response to a period of my growing up that directly and indirectly influenced me by time spent in Brazil as a youth.” Some Kind of Solace by Sean up now on Sukeban Magazine
“When it came to skin tone; I’ve always been on the medium to the dark side of the spectrum so I found it difficult to relate to almost all Indian women in mainstream media. I was actively seeking visual representation of popular brown women who looked like me, which was seldom at the time. Being teased for being ‘brown’ in both spaces only made me reject my culture and the way I looked even more. I felt a lot of social pressure to camouflage into my surroundings rather than stand out as who I was” South Asian Diaspora by Karishma Pranjivan up now on Sukeban Magazine

“Our current climate in the states is uneasy, to say the least. Thriving as a person of colour is courageous in its own right. With that being said I started to look at different revolutionaries throughout history and took inspiration, with the intent of showcasing that mindset through texture and emotion.” LA Résistance by Gustavo up now on Sukeban Magazine
“I’d like to say my work is very personal. Hell, when I say I take them for my unborn kids, I mean that shit. I want to be able to sit on the floor with my kids and not just be able to tell a story but show them. Show them each of my friends, every place I visited and who I encountered along the way” Yazmine by Lex up now on Sukeban Magazine
“Fruit represents this innate beauty all humans being have, something that is delicate and can be so easily destroyed when it is left out in the open, which is the world to us. Fruit comes from our earth, so natural and pure but it gets bruised when tossed around. However, despite that, they still taste sweet on the inside. We have to find that innate beauty just like that sweetness and make sure it lasts with us through the disappointments and sadness that’ll bruise us along the way. It is, after all, what we are born with and we should live with it and eventually die with it” Fr00ts!: Vanessa & Yu by Elsa & Amberlyn up on Sukeban Magazine
“My series is called Tangerine. Tangerine as in the colour orange and the orange that exudes from sunlight intrigued me. People don’t really appreciate natural lighting that much. Especially during the “Golden Hour”. The glow you get during this time is something I feel that you can’t get from studio light. It shows the rawness and intricate details of my subjects. I always love having shadows in my photos because it gives the photo a more dynamic portrayal of my subject. Shadows in my photos also allows it to cover certain spaces of my subjects that I don’t wish to focus on – like for example if I wanted to focus on half of my subject’s face, the shadow does a really good job in covering up the things I don’t want any focus on but shows enough to see that something is present. Does that make sense? I hope it does” Tangerine by Fariq up on Sukeban Magazine
“My personal work, whether it be styling or photography, is always based on a narrative that strives to avoid the instant gratification of social media. Of course, I adore social media and acknowledge the amazing opportunities the platform can make available to artists like myself and the community I surround myself with but I also think it is important to develop and shoot concepts for the longevity of fashion community, not simply for social media stimulus.” Adede by Hailey up now on Sukeban Magazine
“I can’t cure anyone’s depression or tell you how to make it go away, but I can definitely share ways of how I cope with it. I also recognise that my reasons for depression might be similar or completely different to someone else’s. It’s not just about issues surrounding self-love. Some people get depressed due to financial problems, the death of a loved one, illness, appearance, etc. All I can do is tell you about it from my point of view and my personal coping mechanisms.” Sad Gurl D by Danika up now on Sukeban Magazine

"Chinese culture is very collectivist- they value the needs of a group over an individual. Sometimes it is good but it doesn’t really encourage creativity or individuality. You get reprimanded for speaking out or for being different. A lot of shame comes from not living up to the community’s expectations, especially if you have immigrant parents who left everything behind for a better future. Then there is all this burden to become a doctor, teacher, dentist and lawyer. Success is too narrowly framed for it to be achievable, it’s a lot of stress. Of course, not all families are like this. Personally, it was really difficult for me to just do what I wanted" Mixed Media by Akina up now on Sukeban Magazine
“I thought that after university and after I worked a steady job, I could then pursue my interests in fashion. It’s very roundabout but I felt I had to fulfil my familial obligation before I could do what I wanted to do. However, during my first year of engineering in university I fell into depression. I shut myself out. When I finally told my mom I needed to drop out of school, it broke me and it broke her. She saw my depression as an excuse for weak mentality and laziness, which is how many other older Asians perceive depression as well.
It took a long time for our relationship to heal and for me to realise that pursuing my goals that are outside the expectations set for me didn’t mean I was a failure in any way. It gave me a kind of awakening that other Asians may have felt the same thing at some point in their lives- not being able to admit to having depression, not achieving society/family’s traditional standards of ‘success’, and possibly having nowhere to discuss it. It’s something I strongly wish to change and bring awareness to in my culture.” Mixed Media by Akina up now on Sukeban Magazine

“What saddens me the most is its homogeneity. Instagram, in particular, is an awesome platform to meet creatives and get inspiration, but it has become saturated. With ‘trendy’ photography styles, it makes me wonder what constitutes as ‘good’ photography. It has affected the way I view my own work and what I want to show, which is why representing WOC is an important part of my creative journey” Linda by Nadia up now on Sukeban Magazine
“Warudom Sombatkamrai and Melanie Lehmann composed this series of photographs featuring Thai queer creatives, showcasing them each as an embodiment and personification of an aspect of Thai diaspora. Through these images, they hope to convey the different journeys taken within being Thai diasporas, the injustices which they face and also the triumphs” Diaspora BitchCraft: Disruption and Interrogation up now on Sukeban Magazine
