Eros and Logs
The latest Blending Magazine issue has been released, inspired by theme of Eros and Logos, between desire and reason. In this issue we take you through the history of garments in the Jewish culture and faith, hopes and dreams encountered one last night in Florence, why the humanities are still important in this day and age, and how much can learn from the humble label of wine bottle. We are incredibly proud of the work produced by this season’s students and faculty, a true testament to the power of creativity in the midst of challenging times.
