Shell swine presents submissions for digital issue 3:

Replace all parts of a ship, are they still the same as you remember? Scoop out the insides and listen to the echo. Hear the crash; feel the heat. A home, an iridescence, a casing, a sign. Withdraw within, to be soothed, to be smoothed. Embrace the cracks that threaten to splinter. Face revelation without fear. Let in the out and out the in.

We cannot wait to hear your interpretations of the theme. Be as experimental or literal as you like, the theme is there to guide not hinder. Follow whatever inspiration strikes, be it a colour or feeling or abstract reference.

Submissions are open to ALL forms of media and we especially encourage visual artists and non-fiction writers to submit. .

Send your submissions, pitches, or ideas to print@ssu.org.au. Submission guidelines on our website.

Closing: Midnight July 2nd 2023.
