    “A redefining or re-describing of masculinity according to men’s shared lived experience, wants, needs, and desires, is embraced in this candid, evocative, and stunning collection of poems, stories, essays, paintings, and collages in the first issue of the Evolving Gaze, a vibrant and thoughtful curation by editor Lisa Zammit. Vitally, The Evolving Gaze reminds us that definitions and descriptions of humans are human rights issues—definitions can be used as weapons or shields, to silence or to evoke speech, to commodify or … to create harmony, to gain understanding, to spark change, or so many things. The issue feels very personal, as each work is accompanied by reflections from the artist describing the inspiration for their works, and a separate section containing author bios is included at the end of the magazine.”
