Published in Beirut, Cold Cuts magazine is a photo journal exploring queer culture and the Middle East.
This first issue is an extended photo collection that runs alongside a short story about two drag queens getting ready to appear in a local nightclub. Spreading the text throughout the magazine in short little snippets, this is a playful and absorbing form of visual storytelling.
In this issue:
- Stories from activists, performers and artists from the Arab queer community
- Work from photographers, stylists, designers and performers including Tanya Traboulsi, Melchior Tersen, Esteban Gonzalez, MISBHV, Mattis Dovier, Alex Zhang Hungtai (Dirty Beaches), Fecal Matter and Yumna Marwan
