We are thrilled to invite you to submit your sensual and creative visual or written art for Sex & Psychedelics Mag Volume 004.
Our upcoming issue turns toward the body — not as object, but as oracle. The body porous and permeable, shaped by the atmospheres it moves through. The body as a site of memory, desire, grief, wisdom, and resistance. The body that absorbs collective trauma and stores war in its cells. The body that opens in pleasure, trembles in rage, and softens in communion.
We are interested in the erotic as a shared field of aliveness — in how nervous systems speak to one another across skin and distance, how desire is sculpted by collective permission and prohibition, how sex can be an act of deep embodiment and return. We are thinking about plant medicines as keys to cellular memory, somatic initiations that crack us open and put us back together differently, and the ways psychedelics expand not just the mind but the felt sense of being alive in a body.
We are also thinking about which bodies have been controlled, extracted from, regulated, and erased — and about the radical act of reclaiming body sovereignty. About Indigenous embodiment disrupted by colonization living in thought and tissue. About grief without ritual accumulating as chronic tension. About collective movement, chant, song, and rhythm as regulation and repair.
What does the body know that language cannot hold? How do we keep initiating return?
