The latest issue of Scamp Magazine delves into the multi-faceted world of alter egos. Within its 130 glossy pages, you’ll find a spectacular showcase of artists, writers and performers who like to dress up, adopt pseudonyms, and do things under disguise. Whether it be embodying their favourite superheroes, pursuing a secret side-line as a bestselling sci-fi author, or pretending to be a right-wing suburbanite (whose political views couldn’t be further from their own), our cast of contributors are using their nom-de-plumes to go off in every direction. Some act alone, some in a group, others use their own names but work under the banner of an art collective. Some alter-egos are new, some are old, some are dead, whilst others have been permanently ‘retired’. Nothing is off limits. From race and sexuality, to disability rights and the politics of death; from the pastures of Middle England, to the subterranean depths of East London (that’s the part where we cover drainage issues and used tissues), no stone is left unturned.
