Our Rags Magazine envisions a future where transformation and recycling are the only way forward. Each handmade issue is created by turning discarded garments into paper. Here, the pages don’t just show clothing — they are clothing.

Bringing together artists, fashion professionals, writers, and students, the project explores transformation, collective making, and the creative potential of reuse.

We are proud to present Our Rags Magazine no. 2 BLUE, featuring contributions by artist and photographer Paul Kooiker, poet Alara Adilow, artist and writer Becket Flannery, and students and alumni from the Gerrit Rietveld Academie (Amsterdam) — Felicia Aaliyah Buitrago, Chaya Adelaars, Bobbie Bock, Martial Bourdis, Gijs van Herwaarden, Larissa de Jager, Frida Rindal, Dante Tieleman, Fay Tijink, Amelia Urdaneta Uribe, Olivia Garcia-Tola Gonzalez, Orson Westplat, and Simone Winder — and from the Parsons School of Design (New York) — Chi An Yu, Qi He, Kimberly Ortega, Dina Mahrouz, Abel Martirosyan, Jianghao Mo, Alejandra Parra Parodi, and Lillian Tuttle.
