Hello and welcome to the 2026 March issue of Purple Prose—Jacaranda Journal’s first monthly online newsletter instalment! We are officially branching out (forgive the plant pun) to create a regular platform for our readers, a place to talk about all things writing and arts, book recommendations, feature local creatives, and glimpse behind the curtain to see what the Jacaranda team is up to. 

A community, united. One that grows. One that nurtures. That’s what I saw when I stepped into Bianca Tainsh’s Terra Culture.

Tucked away in the heart of West End, artist Bianca Tainsh’s exhibit Terra Culture is a thriving haven containing entire worlds.
