DUST is a Pan-European biannual independent magazine founded in 2011 in Berlin and distributed worldwide, committed to blending high-level photography, culture, and a critical view on our current times. The magazine explores the universe of youth within the context of a continuous state of crisis, highlighting the genuine and non-codified aspects of the emerging generation. It steers clear of institutionalised geography and trends, transcending the standardisation that often shapes the youth experience into regulated forms. DUST collaborates with acclaimed personalities from the fashion industry and cultural sphere, including thinkers, artists, and thought-provoking figures, making it a platform for innovative and influential voices.
DUST ISSUE 26 - UNCANCELLING THE FUTURE
The future hasn't vanished from our horizon due to fears, crises, or uncertainty—it's gone because we gave up imagining it. What was once a realm of endless possibilities has turned into a source of anxiety, a fractured extension of the present that we can neither confront nor see beyond. Neoliberal capitalism, obsessed with short-term gains, has flattened the future into a stagnant present, trapping us in nostalgia and eroding our belief in transformation.
‘Uncancelling the future’ is the only path forward for this generation. Hope isn’t passive—it’s a tool to reclaim our agency, to reignite the belief that change isn’t just possible but inevitable. And change always begins with the courage to imagine a future different from the one we’ve been told is inevitable.
