Korazon
Hello, my name is Nanda, owner of Korazon. I am a Peruvian woman* who migrated to Germany back in 2016. In Lima I studied fashion design and in Germany (Oldenburg) I studied Materielle Kultur: Textil and gender studies. I moved to Berlin in July 2019.
I started this Magazine back in 2020 (published 2021) because I saw that there was a lack of magazines, publications that would include migrant/diasporic voices made from migrant people. Korazon was made with the goal of connecting these voices with the people who really need to read about this non-western/non-white gaze subjects and also at the same time educating the white gaze in a form, that they can learn about new stuff without having to have this information "translated" for them. Making them be in "the others" shoes.
Now Korazon has already 3 issues, which were premiered in Miss Read fair 2022, 2023 and 2024, being sold out in the last year. This year we would love to do the same with the 4th Edition.
