BESIDE magazine, Numéro 17
Through its print publication and digital platform, BESIDE elevates stories, ideas, and know-how to build meaningful lives and to imagine a collective future at the crossroads of nature and culture.
Issue 17 centers on the ephemeral: the art of the moment, death, nature, and relationships that wither or transform. The fleeting nature of existence reminds us that everything – from seasons to friendships, from natural phenomena to human creations – is subject to the relentless passage of time. But what if the ephemeral could teach us something about humility, acceptance, and beauty?
This publication was founded and published by Jean-Daniel Petit, with Marie Charles Pelletier as editor-in-chief.
