Noén’s independent publication explores the pervasiveness of intimacy in every aspect of our lives — in the ways we touch, speak, eat, dress, rest, and connect. Volume 1 explored this through the lens of art. Volume 2 asks: What does it mean to feed each other and ourselves? Curated by Anne Verhallen, this issue explores the intimacy of preparing a meal with your hands, sharing a bite, a gaze, a story, a touch. Across 130 pages, artists, chefs, photographers, and thinkers explore the erotic, the sacred, and the everyday rituals of nourishment. Covers (left to right) by Natalia González Martín, Marilyn Minter, and Larry Madrigal.
