The theme for this issue is Nurture / Nourish. As Portrait itself is a space that nurtures and nourishes its contributors, we found it fitting to use this issue as an opportunity to reflect on our own nourishment. In times where we may feel overwhelmed and burdened with the chaos of the world going around us, it can be really useful to take a step back. As you dive into this issue, think about how you nurture yourself, and how others nurture you. What makes us feel at home? How do we take care of ourselves and others? What helps us grow, heal, and restore ourselves?
With that, we present Nurture / Nourish, Portrait’s eleventh issue! Dive into the stories, get lost in the poetry, and admire the beautiful spreads our contributors have made. We hope you are able to find some nourishment in this issue as you read. Thank you so much for reading and helping make this issue happen.
