About the Magazine
Founded in 2017 | United States
Paperbark lives at the confluence of text and image, science and art. We believe in an obligation to a livable future nurtured through sustainability and collaborations between generations, populations, and fields of thought. Rooted in stewardship and committed to art’s transformative capacities, Paperbark gathers portrayals of ecologies in crisis—as well as evidence of life’s flourishing intricacies.
