“Amanda Bjorn is a travel aficionado and photographer. Now living in and out of Cuba for the last few years, but based in Miami, she has put her love for art, feminism and travel at the forefront of her pictorial narrations. Capturing the world mostly on film, Bjorn has been shooting in an attempt to absorb the absurd and intricate beauty around her. From Ibiza, Serbia, to Vietnam and India, Bjorn has ventured to many locations to explore her creative spirit.”
“We currently live in a world that is slowly, but surely, changing and becoming more aware of the fact that every single action of ours has a direct consequence on the environment. Although this is definitely a great step towards somehow ‘alleviating’ some of climate change's effects, we can't pretend to be ‘eco-friendly’ every step of the way – not because it is draining but it is almost impossible to do so. We talk to co-founder Saeed Al-Rubeyi (who works alongside his partner Katy) about slow clothing and how the British nature-led fashion brand Story Mfg is authentically and unpretentiously carrying this way of living out, with real and achievable goals through collaborating with craftspeople.”
