We’ve got this feeling that we’ve left somethingbehind. It’s nothing physical, and it’s no place geographical. We’re not quite surewhat it is yet and we don’t know if it’s good or bad. Perhaps it’s just post-burnout?Iron deficiency, maybe? What's Mercury’s placement looking like?  \nOne can ESCAPE from anything - a place, a person, a reality, a system. It can bea joyful and liberating act; but it’s also often a necessary one. Of course, escapingalways leaves something behind, and so, it’s worth considering what state we leave  \nthis “something” in. Does our past not catch up with us, eventually, at somepoint down the line?  \nThis issue brings light to ESCAPE in all its manifestations. Spatial concerns fillthese pages - from a small town to the planet. Through examining the storieswe tell - here, superheroes, cults, and personality quizzes - we unpack the collectiveESCAPE from the self, whether for better or for worse. In personal yet politicalexplorations of media and fashion, ESCAPE also examines class with a  \nmuch-needed nuance. Crucially, we look to mainstream narratives of migrationand the xenophobia and racism these narratives are so inextricably bound with.Throughout, we urge you to question who defines an ESCAPE and who thisdefinition advantages and who it disadvantages.  \nThis issue’s shoot, ACROSS THE GREEN, unearths the bittersweet beauty ofESCAPE, what it means to truly exist in a place where there is nowhere to return toand everywhere to run to. Upon the grassy expanse of its surroundings, the shootchannels the raw vulnerability and openness of the issue.  \nEver on theme, this is the final issue created by the 21/22 team. We hope GUMhas been an ESCAPE for you this past year - whether that’s through coming alongto events, contributing to the mag, or simply reading each issue. WFor us, it’sbeen relieving to have GUM as an ESCAPE - an outlet to pour our creativity into,something to conceptualise and watch grow in the hands of our talented team.But as the academic year winds down we prepare for our own ESCAPE; we clearout our Google Drive, hand back our office keys, and send the last couple of emails.In this past year we’ve become accustomed to contributors’ meetings, takeoverschedules, and stressy voice notes at 1am. But it’s time to close all tabs, to log offand log out. It’s been a lot (a joy, a blessing, a curse) and we’re ever so thankful forall of it. Most importantly, we’re so grateful to have worked with the most creative,passionate, and hard-working team and contributors. Thank you. You’re fab.  \nEnjoy this lil ESCAPE. It’s on us.  \nWith love,  \nFEATURES  \nFINDING MAMOUby Pierre Labat2  \nSMALL TOWN GIRLby Claire Thomson4  \nCULTURE  \nLET THEM EAT CORIOLANUSby James Taylor7  \nFIGHT OR FLIGHT: THE FUTUREOF SUPERHERO FILMSby Eve Connor8  \nART & PHOTOGRAPHY  \nAFFECTIONby Lydia Butler10  \nPOLITICS  \nBACKWARDS BRITAIN: THE HOSTILEENVIRONMENT IS ALIVE AND WELLby Niamh Flanagan14  \nWHO IS THE REAL SCAPEGOATOF CANCEL CULTURE?by Helena Waumsley16  \nEDITORIAL SHOOT  \nACROSS THE GREEN18  \nSTYLE & BEAUTY  \nA TALE OF TWO WARDROBES:  \nWORKING-CLASS FETISHIZATIONby Kathryn Blake26  \nSARTORIAL SECTS: FASHIONIN CULTSby Naomi Maeve28  \nSCIENCE & TECH  \nKINDA LOVE YOU, MISGUIDED MBTIby Hailie Pentleton31  \nHOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM:  \nTHE INEQUALITIES OFPLANETARY ESCAPEby Maia Appleby32  \nCREATIVE WRITING  \nALIEN CORNby Zohra Iqbal34  \nSUSTAINABLE FARMINGby Violet Maxwell36  \n# FINDINGMAMOU\n\nSUMMER 22  \n2  \nWORDSPIERRE LABAT(HE/HIM)  \nARTELLA EDWARDS(SHE/HER)  \n3  \nFEATURES  \nWhen Fraisette learned that she was to become agrandmother, she naturally chose “Mamouchka” as hernickname.
