Scars Digital Publication

Overview

Scars is a print and digital publication sharing personal stories of injury, recovery, and limitation. It centers the emotional, mental, and human realities often overlooked when experiences are reduced to a visible scar. Through candid storytelling, the publication creates connection, reflection, and recognition across a wide range of journeys.
