Carcy #14

CARCY is a large-format Parisian publication dedicated to the representation of eroticism, defined by refined minimalism and a deep appreciation for vintage photography and portraiture.  The magazine explores human interaction in its many forms: between generations, subcultures, aesthetics, day and night moments.

At its core lies a unifying idea — desire as a form of exchange, encounter, and universal language. Carcy is a publication about people and their connection to something both deeply intimate and profoundly collective.

In the issue #14 the editorial team speculates on what makes them different. "Are we really the crazy ones? The hysterical? The unfit? How come madness feels sane and sanity completely deranged? In our collapsing democracies, where dissent is pathologized, what is considered madness is madness is pushed further and further to the margins. And to us, many so-called “mad” individuals feel actually more attuned to reality than those who call themselves sane. For its new issue, CARCY navigates the chaos and layered paradoxes of madness — which one can also approach through its complementary mirror: mental health".
