Jenn (Founder/Editor) wrote an essay about Rat World - why it began, who is behind it, what our ethos is, and where it might be going. But overall, it’s an essay about the power of collective practice and community publishing. satellites.co.nz/magazine/is…

The publication is held by many hands by Jennifer Cheuk | Satellites

SATELLITES connects the past, present and future of Aotearoa Asian art.
