Desire Lines / 2022
Issue Three of Wonderground explores the ways in which lives are shaped by both desire and line. We’re exploring ideas of ecosexuality and Derek Jarman’s garden, mapping flight paths, meandering along desire lines, tracing the story of Nikolai Vavilov, using desire as a design tool, and holding tight to the rope stretched across the deep. Featuring essays, memoir, art and poetry from an eclectic collection of writers, thinkers, gardeners and artists, Wonderground Issue Three is hopeful, heartfelt, provocative and delightful – a salve for our times.
