Apogee Issue 17 is daring in its ambivalence, asking important questions about both the expansiveness and limits of our capacity to love. This issue's cover features a piece by Abigail Lucien, which visual arts editor Dana Robinson chose for the way it transforms a wrought-iron fence, an everyday object we interact with often, into something magical. We offer you a curation of this magic in the pieces within Issue 17, and invite you to encounter and celebrate work by Joshua Aiken, Nicola Andrews, Asnia Asim, Kyle Seamus Brosnihan, Elliott Jerome Brown Jr., Justin Chance, Noah Arhm Choi, Shawanda Corbett, Zoë Fay-Stindt, Angalis Field, Alejandro Heredia, Iqra Khan, Aundeah J. Kearney, Abigail Lucien, Gerardo Pacheo Matus, Teresa Milbrodt, Phoebe Oathout, Alixen Pham, Naieka Raj, Gabrielle Octavia Rucker, Ashley Teamer, Ali A. Ünal, and Sydney Elexis Vernon.
