Elastic is a print magazine of psychedelic art and literature.
On the theme of dying: all kinds of endings, all kinds of new beginnings, transitory states, portals, and processes by which the self is shattered and transformed and transcended.
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.
The first psychedelic era was a time of radical artistic innovation, and yet, in the popular imagination, "psychedelia" refers to little more than Day-Glo mandalas and contorted mushrooms—a narrow corridor. Elastic is interested in taking the walls down. Or, rather, Elastic is interested in demonstrating that the walls were never really there. These 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.
