Autre - Desire

Autre's S/S 2025 Desire Issue is a lush, incandescent descent into the undercurrents of longing, transformation, and creative rebellion. Across 360 pages, Autre’s 20th issue pulsates with heat and intention: artists, musicians, writers, and visionaries unearth the sacred, the sensual, and the surreal forces that shape us.

Björk, visionary artist, sonic architect, and oracle of the post-human, speaks with Hans Ulrich Obrist in an expansive conversation on ecology, ritual, and the shapeshifting nature of desire. Photographed by Vidar Logi, this feature arrives alongside the long-awaited theatrical release of Björk: Cornucopia on May 7, a hallucinatory stage work that mines her past while dreaming forward. To accompany this interview, we present a 60-page in-depth, meticulously researched dossier of Björk’s life and career through the lens of desire and ecology—from her musical innovations to her sartorial radicalism. Rare, unearthed photographs by Paulo Sutch, Spike Jonze, and Matthew Rolston. A retrospective of images by Juergen Teller. An essay by Angelo Flaccavento on her pagan way of dressing. And collaborations with Takashi Homma, Nobuyoshi Araki, Chris Cunningham and more.
