Ascension Magazine

Welcome to Ascension Magazine! We are delighted to present to you The Colour of Beauty Volume 1- a new face of diversity.

Ascension is the first Australian magazine in history catering to women of Indigenous and ethnic backgrounds. The only one of its kind, Ascension carves a unique niche amongst Australian women's fashion and lifestyle magazines.

What sets Ascension apart from every other glossy magazine, is our courage to see the world in colour rather than black and white.

Our philosophy, Aspire, Inspire, Desire aims to liberate readers to love and celebrate the skin they are in and embrace their infinite power.

“We deliver timeless content that inspires our readers to be revolutionary. We are the flint that sparks conversations.” says Ascension's Editor Sasha Sarago.

The Colour of Beauty is a digital exploration of beauty redefined; a curation of articles, fashion, art, film and photography which creates a new dialogue about cultural identity and self-representation from an Indigenous and ethnic woman's point of view.

Here's a sneak peek inside The Colour of Beauty:

#2P2BA: Yorta Yorta/Wiradjuri woman Jirra Lulla Harvey examines why the statement "Too pretty to be Aboriginal." is not a compliment and explores why 'Aboriginality' is in opposition to 'Prettiness'.

Call of the Wild: A return to cultural integrity. Dr. Jude Smith Rachele gets to the core of colourism and why Lupita Nyong'o's exalted beauty is not a victory for women of colour.

Erykah Badu: Authentic to the core; courageous to a beat, take a glimpse inside the life of Erica Abi Wright aka the Queen of Neo-Soul.

Raw Beauty: An intimate interview with Kemi Nekvapil our very own Raw Beauty Queen. Kemi shares her 7 principles of Raw Beauty and why beauty never felt so good!

See Me Now: Produced by Glen Mackay, See Me Now is a fashion film that encourages women to feel comfortable in their skin, "Because if you feel beautiful, you will look beautiful and they will 'See You Now'."

Australian Indigenous Fashion Week: Behind the scenes with Indigenous designers Aarli, Grace Lillian Lee, Mimi Designs and Wild Barra at the inaugural fashion event of the year AIFW.

Tep Tok - Reading Between Our Lines: Julia and Nata take us on their journey to resurrect the lost art of tribal tattooing in the Central Province, Papua New Guinea.

Ascension is the magic that happens when women dare to be fearless and release the goddess power within.
