a tender queer, feisty introvert, early morning art making kind of human that wants to fuck shit up with empathy

a manifesto, a living document, forever a rough draft

I propose tears as revolution. Caring as protest. Empathy as justice.

I will expose humanity with great tenderness. I acknowledge vulnerability as an act of resistance. It is my battle cry, my weapon and my salve.

I exert no energy towards silencing or oppressive forms of social etiquette.
I will not dilute myself for approval.

I reject fear as motivation, I propose generosity and trust in it’s place.

I believe scarcity is a tool of oppressors, used to control by instilling fear. Driving us from one another, fists clutched tightly.

I believe in community, collaboration and a generous exchange of knowledge.

I believe art should be accessible, touchable, and should exist outside of galleries whenever possible.
