An independent magazine with the intention of reproducing the visual imagination. Featuring images by a selection of guest artists, the magazine is designed without the use of words and packaged as printed matter. In contrast to the unprecedented exposure to ephemeral imagery consumed through the internet and social media(RE)PICTURE works together with artists of varied nationalities to develop a modern and enduring image ecosystem that symbolises the pursuit of a universal language.

Issue 01: What do we think of when we look at a single picture? The transmission of an image involves material(chemistry), shape(figure), mind(impression)and also includes space as a keyword. Like a chemical reaction, those visible elements interweave with the invisible to create a cycle of association when the imagination of a viewer is applied. Believing that the human imagination is also one of our planets invaluable assets, we adopted resource as the theme for the first issue of our magazine. Edited by Akira Takamiya(moder-n), art-direction & design by OK-RM, photo-editor Yuji Hamada.
