FASHION, ART AND SHIBARI
artPLAY is the first magazine to merge fashion, genderfluid art, and Shibari in a contemporary, creative way. We subvert stereotypes by showcasing high-end editorials and innovative artwork from professional photographers and artists. artPLAY is a publication for curious, sexpositive, gender-bending, age irrelevant individuals who are on journey of discovery. We are an artistic expression of spiritual, kinky, genderfluid culture.
