World Of is an editorial feature series exploring the people, stories, ideas, and creative worlds behind the art.

Through interviews, artist profiles, project deep dives, origin stories, and other long-form features, the series will go beyond the finished product to look at what shaped it: the experiences behind the work, the choices made along the way, and the worlds the creators hope their audiences will not only enter, but make themselves right at home inside.

While World Of will primarily highlight musicians and emerging artists, it’s also open to writers, founders, designers, filmmakers, actors, developers, collectives, and other creatives with a story worth exploring.

And don’t worry; spotlighting emerging talent will continue to be one of the most important parts of the series!

I love discovering artists who are still building their audiences, finding their voices, and creating worlds that more people deserve the chance to experience.

Through World Of, I hope to give them space to be seen beyond a quick intro or promotional post, and to share the stories, ideas, and intentions behind what they’re creating.

Because people don’t fall in love with art alone. They connect to the human being who made it. Art draws people in, but it’s the story behind it that makes them stay.
