JAWS - Journal of Arts Writing by Students
The Journal of Arts Writing by Students is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes articles from the post-graduate student community, both at MA and PhD level, and it's a platform where practice-based arts research is presented critically.
Originally founded at Chelsea School of Art, and published by Intellect since 2015, it’s the first academic arts journal entirely dedicated to current students' and recent alumni’s work.

Journal of Arts Writing by Students
Aims and Scope
JAWS publishes academic writing, practice-based research articles, exhibitions and book reviews, interviews and opinion articles, as well as visual essays that incorporate and maintain the criticality needed to engage with the contemporary contexts that push the field of art forward. It works to showcase new lines of discourse and topical arts research taking place in art institutions through the practice of writing and publishing.
Arts writing is currently at the epicenter of any art studying, and therefore is more important than ever. JAWS stimulates the articulation of students’ research through our network of peers, and functions as an exercise in publishing, seeking to promote early career researchers across the academic community. We aim to be inclusive and diverse by pushing the boundaries of what art writing can be, while upholding the quality expected in academia by challenging our contributors to maintain a critical approach. Our articles are broad in range, which reflects the diversity of the research happening across the world, fostering a spirit of debate and ways for the practice of writing to accommodate new ideas.

We accept submissions from current MA and PhD students. We also accept submissions from 'emerging authors/artists': people who work in and around the arts, with a post-graduate degree, who have a maximum of 3 published articles.
We go through a double blind peer-review process. This means we need to source appropriate peers to review the articles. Our editors then collate the feedback given and overview the editorial process with the author until it's ready for publication. It's then handed over to our publisher Intellect, which provides all the technical support for our journal to become available online as well as beautifully printed.
In regular years, the process should take approximately 6 months. Covid-19 has strained our resources and networks, so we are currently working with a delay of approximately 4 months.
Peers give feedback as: publish with minor adjustments, publish with major adjustments and do not publish. The most common feedback is publish with major adjustments. This usually means that there are issues with some ideas, paragraphing, and Intellect's Style, which - generally speaking - follows the Harvard referencing system. Usually, do not publish feedback happens when there is no critical insights or the English language quality is too poor to work with. We aim to support emerging authors to get published, so we are more likely to work with the author across a span of more than one issue to get it to publish standard, than to immediately turn down the article.
We are not a proof-reading service. At post-graduate level you are expected to be professional, so if you are not confident about your level of English, please do get your text proofread by a professional or a native speaker.
