MAGAZINE | Hijacking the Language of Fashion

Magazine

RE FUSE Magazine is a non-profit magazine initiated by Olfa Ben Ali.  RE FUSE is an avant-garde glossy that hijacks the traditional language of fashion magazines. RE FUSE is on a mission to strip this medium back to its bare essentials and use it to stage a creative protest that reflects our own “crisis” of prejudice and intolerance.

RE FUSE will be the voice for the unstoppable flow of trends and styles coming out of global hotspots as diverse as Aleppo, Ramallah, Baghdad, Mogadishu, Athens, Amsterdam and New York.

Re|FUSE is not a conventional magazine. It is a conceptual apparatus: a space where ideas, materials, and collaborations converge, where perception is challenged, and where each iteration produces artworks that are research, method, and object simultaneously.

Each issue explores tensions — crisis and form, ethics and desire, visibility and marginality — and becomes a prompt for contributing artists, designers, writers, and journalists, or a site for my own multi-format explorations. The result: research-driven, tangible artworks that sustain contradiction and provoke reflection.
