Solstice is a bi-annual publication that collates diverse content to celebrate the co-existence
of polarities in all human matter—diving into the arts, humanities and politics. Each issue does revolve around a set of two opposite aspects of our life as to explore the inherent duality in human experience. Through embracing different perspectives and indulging into curious conversations, the reader is invited to blur the lines and understand the world as one.

To visually represent the concept of duality, each issue is divided into two halves. One half
is mostly text-based, featuring short and long-reads, while the other half is dominantly picture-based, exploring the issue's theme through photographic projects by different photographers, both emergent and more established ones.
