Aims & Scope

JAWS is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes new art and writing from early- to mid-career researchers and practitioners working across artistic mediums. 

Founded as the Journal of Arts Writing by Students at Chelsea School of Art in 2013 and published by Intellect since 2015, the journal was the first of its kind entirely dedicated to students' work in artistic research. JAWS publishes writing about art and writing as art. We welcome practice-based research, visual essays, book reviews and interviews by practitioners and researchers. We encourage divergent and/or unconventional forms, as well as more traditional submissions. As it stands, we only accept submissions in the English language, but our aim is to connect international contributors with an international audience. 

As a platform, we foster criticality and experimentation. The support and expertise of an established network of editors and peer reviewers allow for co-produced reflection and discussion, guiding our contributors to publish reimagined approaches to writing in artistic scholarship and creative practice. We aim to balance such experiments with the academic rigour of peer review alongside attentive and diligent editorial processes.
