STILL is the eleventh issue of the independent literary journal FU Review Berlin (DE). As with each issue of the journal, a main theme, stillness, represents the core of inspiration for the selected artists. "Remember that STILL is not always quiet. Find STILL in the way the narrator seems to catch his breath. Look for STILL in the vastness of the landscape, the unspoken words, and in the way the language seems to slow down time. Find STILL even in the continuity of chaos, unnoticeable only because it takes up the entire room.
In this issue, the digital artworks of Tabitha Swanson accompany the poetries and proses of Aya Al-Telmissany, Christian Beltran, Gamze S. Saymaz, Kitty Doherty, and Moses Hubbard.
The editorial design of the journal has been curated by Eleonora Toniolo and Benedetta Pompili, with the help of the editors in chief, since 2019. The design was thought to smoothen out the readers’ experience of the journal, that had been abruptly changed multiple times in the previous issues. The typographic choices and the grid are designed for a pleasurable and airy reading with a sensitivity to detail. Each issue is unique, as the design is lightly adapted to the temporary main theme and the practice of the visual artist, changing as well for each edition.
