““A book must be the ax for the frozen sea within us.””
Black Flowers is an online arts journal. Edited and curated by Katie Doherty - it explores the intersection of literature, visual art, and magic.
The journal dances between the beautiful and the grotesque, the magic and the mundane, the body and the soul. It employs themes of symbolism, literature, art and the dichotomy of the psyche.
Our History
Black Flowers began in 2020 as an artistic antidote to the pandemic, a place to share visual and textual matter. As time went on, it became a fully-fledged online arts journal. It is also home to a small press that curates and publishes underground and outsider poetry.
