Driven by their\u00a0mutual interest in photography, art books and editorial work, they asked a group of creatives of all ages for their intuitive interpretation of &#8220;form&#8221;, the first of the bimonthly assigned words.

Submissions will be accepted from 3 to 17 April 2017. As for the future, the New York duo want to launch a print version in 2018 based on the 6 words assigned throughout the year, providing a more curated and narrative approach to the compilation of artworks. &#8220;We believe magazines and art books will always have a place on people\u2019s shelves&#8221;, they explain. &#8220;There is nothing quite like looking at an art book and being able to touch and turn the pages. The magazine will take up space &#8211; it\u2019s the physical difference which will allow VISCERAL8 to not be squeezed onto an iPad or iPhone and risk becoming one in the same&#8221;.<br \/>\n<strong>Scroll down to see a selection of works from the current issue.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-48626 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Mark_Griffiths.jpg\" alt=\"Visceral8 - Mark Griffiths\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1511\" \/> by Mark Griffiths<\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.visceral8.com\/shop\/maansi-jain?rq=maansi\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-48628 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Maansi_Jain.jpg\" alt=\"Visceral 8 - Maansi Jain\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2175\" \/><\/a> by Maansi Jain<\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-48625 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Katja_Stuckrath.jpg\" alt=\"Visceral8 - Katja Stuckrath\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2250\" \/> by Katja Stuckrath<\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-48624 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Jessica_Pettway.jpg\" alt=\"Visceral8 - Jessica Pettway\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2250\" \/> by Jessica Pettway<\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-48623\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Annika_Weertz-900x600.jpg\" alt=\"Visceral8 - Annika Weertz\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" \/> by Annika Weertz<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Ransom\u00a0Ashley\u00a0 Born out of a love for linguistics and artistic collaboration, VISCERAL8 is an online platform showcasing works by artists from all around the world.
