exploring desire, pleasure, wellness and art
Slumber is an erotica magazine that features sensual artwork and writing from the BIPOC perspective. It is all about exploring desire, pleasure, wellness and art. As a part of that vision we want to create a safe space for people of color to delve into the vulnerability inherent in sexual expression.
“There has been a huge void in sex-positive media, owned and created, from the perspective of Black people & communities of color.”
As a one-time offering, Slumber magazine features advocates and conversation starters in the world of pleasure–specifically for people of color. Pleasure expressionism is what Slumber wants to achieve by breaking down those barriers relative to pleasure and encouraging real compassionate dialogue to spur a path of healing, well-being, and imminent positive fulfillment that can happen when intimacy is taken seriously.
In our Slumber Lucid Dreams Issue we went deep inside the dreams of desire to become active participants of our fantasy. Through a tapestry of sensual visual art, erotica fiction and sex-positive narratives, this publication explored and embraced our inherent sexual desires without shame.
