Lately I was thinking a lot about love, how it wrapped my head, drowned my thoughts and squeezed my mind. That Love can bring back life in dry dead surroundings. Even the pain gives love strength and seduce. Uncontrolled thoughts let yourself drown. Love wraps our limbs and senses without any chance to control them by ourselves and even if we are prisoned behind thornbushes of thoughts and feelings, it is always love which frees us from everything.

The fabric is the love, the naked body the nature and the dead and dramatic surrounding, the pain which goes along with love.

This series is a part of our ongoing featured topic: LOVE. For this curated collection, we have invited contributors to delve into their perspectives on Love in Today’s Relationships.

DE: “Die moderne Liebe ist für mich sehr vielfältig und unvorhersehbar. Es entstehen auch immer mehr neue Arten zu lieben. Ich denke auch, dass es heutzutage vielen schwieriger fällt, nur eine Person zu lieben, da man verschiedene Arten der Liebe fühlen möchte, anstatt sich für eine zu entscheiden.” – Stefan Bratl

EN: “For me, modern love is very diverse and unpredictable. There are also more and more new ways of loving. I also think that many people nowadays find it more difficult to love just one person, as they want to feel different kinds of love instead of choosing just one.” -Stefan Bratl
