Carrier Pigeon is a magazine of illustrated fiction and fine art. By giving full creative control to the writers, artists, illustrators, and designers this magazine deconstructs the conventional perception of the singularity of each artistic discipline while setting a new and uncharted standard for their successful merging. Carrier Pigeon provides contributing literary and visual artists with a venue for telling independent stories in an undisturbed environment by offering unconditional artistic freedom in both direct subject matter and the interpretation of text. The main goal of this journal is to provide a magazine that itself is a piece of artwork.
