The Plant Journal

In issue 13 of the Spanish based contemporary photography and art magazine, The Plant celebrates the life and work of the late Linda McCartney on the 20th anniversary of her death. The renowned photographer and late-wife of The Beatles frontman Paul McCartney had a keen passion for the use of plants and nature in the photography of her family, this resonates in the cover which presents a young Stella McCartney in Scotland in 1973. The Journal further has a 17 page feature of her work covering the life of the family, as well as some infamous personalities from throughout the sixties, seventies and eighties.

Staying in tune with the focus of this magazine, there are features throughout; Janneke Van Der Hagen highlights the danger of the worlds growing reliance on plastic while combining it with haute couture by designers such as Kiko Kostadinov, or North India as seen by the young London based photographer Tom Johnson - all while maintaining the key theme of greenery, plants and nature.

The Plant is a biannual magazine that aims to unite musicians, photographers, artists, designers or writers on a common monograph of plants to share their stories and varying interpretations of the natural world.
