This issue seeks to answer the question: What does “natural” mean now?
After spending twenty years living and working in London, Los Angeles, and New York, photographer Derek Henderson has been an important figurehead of the Australian and New Zealand photography community. Henderson’s editorial work can be seen in publications including Arena Homme +, i-D, Mastermind, British Vogue, WSJ. Magazine, and more. Henderson has created independent bodies of work that explore and narrate the rich natural landscapes and communities of Australia and New Zealand, too: projects like The Terrible Boredom of Paradise and Mercy Mercer. Henderson is currently working on new book and exhibition projects between Australia and New Zealand.

What does it mean to you to be part of a thriving ecosystem?
Balancing your personal needs against what is good for the ecosystem and every living organism in that ecosystem.
