BACK IN TOWN - a Letter from the Founder

Dear readers and friends of SO WOW MAGAZINE,
It is with great excitement that I welcome you to this new phase of our magazine! This moment of rebirth is not only an opportunity for us to resume publication but also a time to reflect on the lessons learned during our early years of activity. The period between 2017 and 2019 was an incredible journey. We had the opportunity to explore the world of emerging and non-mainstream fashion, art, and  music, and to share these discoveries with you, our community of readers. During this time, we learned a lot about what it means to be a voice in the contemporary cultural landscape.
In a world where voices can easily be stifled or ignored, we understood how essential it is to have the space to express oneself freely. This freedom allowed us to experiment, push beyond conventional boundaries, and bring forth new voices.
But freedom of expression is not just about having the opportunity to speak; it is also about having something to say. And to have something to say, we realized the importance of study and acquiring skills.
Lastly, we grasped how precious art and creativity are. They are the key ingredients that fuel our magazine and make our community so vibrant and dynamic. They must be preserved, respected, and celebrated always.
Art and creativity are what allow us to see the world in new and surprising ways, challenge the status quo, and imagine infinite possibilities.
With these lessons in our hearts, we are ready to embark on this new phase. Our goal will be to celebrate as many creative realities as possible, to give them a voice and space. We will strive to unveil new perspectives, stimulate discussion, and inspire with beauty and originality.
In this new chapter, I want to wish you a year full not only of successes but also of experiences that nourish your soul. May it be a year of brilliant discoveries, unexpected connections, challenges that push you to surpass your limits, turning every obstacle into a launching pad for the realization of your dreams.
Regarding the image I have chosen to share with you, the one without makeup and in a sweatshirt at the computer, I hope it reminds you that all of us, deep down, are creative beings, eager to express ourselves and make a difference in the world through hard work, dedication, and passion.
We await you every day with new content.
With gratitude, Simonettha M. @simonettha
