wROughT is a meta-modern magazine of arts, culture, and politics based in New York City.
To Bring To A Desired Shape.
The Archaic Past.
the process of decay
a nonsensical state of affairs
The disorienting and oversaturated conditions of our time call for multiplicities: ways of seeing, making, breaking, and remaking. We gather ideas here, not to resolve contradictions, but to let them breathe together.
We call ourselves a magazine because every project needs a means and destination before it can be seen. Ours comes shaped by rot and wrought. An ongoing oscillation between what decays and what endures. Our chosen definitions embody distinct eras of thought, practices, and structure. Our 'zine allows you to decide which form speaks to you.
