MIA LE JOURNAL
2022-23 // UNKNOWN ISSUE XV
UNKNOWN ISSUE: An invitation to step out of our comfort zones and get ever closer to discovering that which we do not know or think we do not know, by gaining a new perspective, or rather a set of different perspectives. In fact, the overall aim is to help our readers become aware of the fact that the question of the unknown depends solely on how you look at it. The desire to go where you have never been before to experience the extraordinary – something that is far out of your comfort zone and wheelhouse – to broaden your prospective and give way to the wonder of knowledge, or even non-knowledge.
