about
Soft Stir is an independent,
Sydney-based publication examining philosophies, culture, art and music
through the eyes of emerging Australian creatives.
From bushfires raging across the Australian landscape, and smokey hazes enveloping our cities and lungs; to COVID-19 threatening our health and safety, it's been quite a hectic year.
Now, as we spend our days primarily in our homes, it seems like an apt time to process and assess what home means to us and how we can cultivate safe and healthy environments for the future.
Soft Stir’ first issue, Stories of Home, acts as a reflective journal, with twenty-seven emerging creatives exploring the meaning of home in their lives and their communities.
Learn about what it's like on the frontline of a youth activist movement, campaigning towards a Green New Deal in the US. Read poetry reflecting on the anxiety of bushfire season. Discover and celebrate the history of Sydney's vogue culture. Meet two inspiring individuals, influencing political culture from wildly different industries; and so much more.
