About us

Junko is an annual arts journal responding to place.

Each year Junko heads to a different region of the world, significant for its unique geography and distinctive creative communities. We explore and document the natural and urban landscapes, stopping off along the way to meet the artists and designers defining the visual scene of their place.

Our mission is to understand the intrinsic links between the nature of creativity and the places where we make, to identify how our environment influences us, challenges us, helps and distracts us and to explore how our present geography effects creative decision making.

Each issue is designed upon reflection of the natural geography and aesthetic languages of the region travelled, making the physicality of each publication definitive to the locality explored.
