Cover by Andrew Hem. Born during his parents' move from Cambodia in the wake of the Khmer Rouge genocide, Andrew Hem grew up between two cultures - the rural society of his Khmer ancestors, and the dynamic urban arts of the tough Los Angeles neighbourhood where his family came to rest. Fascinated by graffiti at an early age, he honed his skills with graphics and composition on the walls of the city before following a passion for figure drawing to a degree in illustration from Art Center College of Design. Working in gouache, oil, and acrylic, Andrew Hem weaves atmospheric, richly textured narratives in a vivid palette.
