finca morada zine

Little notes from my not so little sketchbook. I initially planned this zine to be a guide, resource, etc... I have no agency to provide a guide. Finca is a mangrove. It is a portal. In the garden, one is sharing their breath with so many other lives. One is sitting on land that is charged with the history of those who shared the same land before, as well as with the community that keeps it alive today. I am grateful every day to have found this community. I am grateful to be alive, to be living, and always learning.

as clay bodies, our walls connect zine

This zine was created using participants' notes collected from a clay workshop I facilitated in May 2022 at TropoTrope in Miami, FL. 

"This piece [from the workshop] seeks the place at which each of our unique thresholds encounter each other's, and in doing so merge. We will begin by making small clay vessels in our palms, combining them into successively larger forms. By its completion, one large form will be all that remains. This piece locates the spaces between us as filled with possible routes of connection. While the clay- as a material- is bound together to constitute a larger group, we will also be bonded."
