Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Elastic is a print magazine of psychedelic art and literature. We publish visual art and writing
that bend time and genre and perspective, blur waking and dreaming life, find sublimity and
absurdity in the everyday, magnify the senses, multiply and distort the possibilities of
narrative, and interrogate power by breaking form. Our pages conjure a truly expansive
vision of psychedelic culture, bringing together a vast body of contemporary psychedelic
work and paying tribute to an overlooked archive. Elastic No. 1: The Dying Issue won the 2026
CLMP Firecracker Award in Magazines / Best Debut and was a finalist for the National
Magazine Award for Fiction. Elastic No. 2: The Interspecies Issue, which features 52
contributing artists and writers, is available now at elasticmag.com.
