CIRCUS No. 02: The Impossible Issue [2022]

Unbound | 297 x 420mm

Published in a limited edition of 1,000 copies only and hunted by collectors with good taste and wild hearts, Circus Issue 2 is the kind of anti-beauty bible you don’t just flip through—you fall into.

Curated by the razor-sharp eye of photographer Jackson Bowley, this second instalment of Circus breaks all the rules and then throws glitter on the wreckage. If you’re bored of over-polished studio shoots and retouched-to-death spreads, welcome home. Circus is a loud, latex-laced rebellion. A celebration of everything sticky, shiny, warped and wild. A visual playground where post-human pouts and gooey textures reign supreme. It’s slick, it’s strange, it’s exactly what the cultural doctor ordered.

No text other than discreet image credits here and there, Circus consists of 20 x A1 offset-printed posters, folded, unbound, and drenched in Bowley’s hyper-gloss surrealism. With contributors including Alexis Stone, Janina Zais, Maisie Cousins, Aidan Zamiri, and Lily Bling, each followed the Circus format of creating a single full-page image intended to be taken out and stuck on your wall. 

As featured in Dazed and It’s Nice That, Circus isn’t just a magazine—it’s a maximalist portal into a future where beauty breaks loose and nothing is off limits.
