Letter from the Editors

 We are thrilled to present this issue of  the genesis magazine. 
genesis has been publishing student work since 1972 and is 
entirely selected, designed, and edited by dedicated IUPUI 
editors. This issue is filled with artists and writers exploring 
form, delving into immersive topics like death and fantasy, and 
appreciating the intimately human moments of  daily life. Some 
are joining the discussion of  art and literature that has been 
going on for centuries with ancient Greek and biblical allusions 
while others are creating entirely in the contemporary moment. 
All of  the pieces offer vulnerability and creativity, and we are 
proud to share them in this issue. 

 We would like to thank our editors and apprentices, who 
have adjusted back to in-person work with understanding and 
enthusiasm, our faculty advisor Sarah Layden, who is always a 
patient guide, and our contributors, who are the heart of  this 
issue. We are also thankful for each reader and hope that you 
enjoy reading this issue as much as we enjoyed making it.
