The magazine «(dis)appearing» explores textile tactics of disappearance.

In times of permanent visibility and self-presentation, the publication negotiates disappearance not as a loss, but as an act of resistance. Withdrawal or concealment is viewed as a counterstrategy to unwanted gazes. The collection of everyday practices, essays, design perspectives and artistic works highlights the urgency of more self-determined possibilities for retreat and reveals various strategies for self-efficacy.
