Why Submit to STRATUM? This is not a one-off post. STRATUM is designed to build durable visibility.
1) Editorial framing that makes your work legible. They work with selected contributors to present work with context: titles, abstracts, captions, references, and editorial structure that makes it legible to readers outside your immediate circle.
2) A stable, citable publication record. Selected pieces live as lasting pages designed for citation and reuse in applications, portfolios, and institutional contexts.
3) Curatorial continuity and future pathways. They treat submissions as part of a longer relationship. Selected artists and writers may be considered for future commissions, co-productions, partner introductions, programs, and long‑term collaborations within the ELSEHERE ecosystem. STRATUM welcomes English, Chinese, or bilingual submissions. We value translation as an editorial practice, not a marketing layer.
4) Global circulation with cross‑language sensitivity. They operate across the US, Europe, and Asia. We are bilingual by nature, and we actively support practices that travel across cultural contexts. STRATUM welcomes English, Chinese, or bilingual submissions. We value translation as an editorial practice.
Requirements They accept submissions across art, culture, and humanities, including:
Essays and cultural criticism (field-facing, research-driven, readable)
Artist writing (practice statements, methodologies, process texts, scores)
Interviews and dialogues (artists, curators, researchers, producers)
Artist dossiers (works plus editorial framing and contextual text)
Experimental texts (hybrid forms, annotated archives, fragments, scripts)
Practice-led research (case studies, method notes, reflective documentation)
If your work sits between writing and practice, or moves between languages, contexts, and disciplines, STRATUM is built for it.
They are particularly interested in writing and practice-led material that:
Proposes a method, not only an opinion
Builds an argument with evidence, stakes, and form
Makes complex practice readable without flattening
Engages questions of body, image, technology, ritual, ecology, diaspora, archive
Operates in the space where language is still catching up to practice
Brings a distinctive voice, structure, or editorial intelligence
There is no fixed theme. They care about editorial coherence, precision, and depth.
