cyanotypes ☀️
Saturday, July 25th from 1-4p @ Dvorak Park in Pilsen

If it rains, popup will be moved into the field houses!

Popup printmaking workshop series is inspired by our portfolio called transplantas 🌱

🐚TRANSplantas: carrying belonging 🐌

TRANSplantas - carrying belonging is a print exchange portfolio between queer artists in community around Chicago + la Ciudad de Mexico. The exchange is organized by Tortillería Gráfica (CDMX) + Marimacha Monarca Press (Chicago). This portfolio seeks to illustrate queer ecological visions, visions that disrupt binary frameworks and recognize fluidity + otherness. Sharing print invocations for past, present + future environmental justice, landback, cross pollination / hybridity, and human, flora + fauna transmigration. Honoring our queer ecosystems that are both as flamboyant as poison dart frogs and as underground as mycelial networks.

Transplants are uprooted organisms with the inherent ability to re-root, to become part of a new environment. They transform the act of severing into the act of belonging + becoming. As, TRANSplantas we too possess the ability to morph the singular into the communal, to foster different ecosystems + create belonging.

this series is made possible with the generous support of @ignitefundchi & NOITPs 🌱
