We are Low Altitude, a South African literary magazine dedicated to celebrating the exceptional talent of South African creatives. Our mission is to showcase the voices, stories, and visions of local artists, photographers, writers, poets, and a wide range of creatives who bring fresh perspectives and powerful narratives to life.

​

We believe that South Africa’s creative landscape is vibrant, diverse and still very much undiscovered. Through thoughtfully curated features, interviews, and original content, we shine a spotlight on our countries creative community. From emerging voices to established talent, we’re here to amplify the artistry that inspires us and our readers.
