That which separates you and I or here and there' is a 12 x 24" screenprinted zine on the contemplation of mortality and loss. It is a single-sheet folded zine / poster, consisting of multi-paneled images on one side of the sheet of paper and a large single image on the other side of the paper. The images consist of various subjects and objects emerging from or disappearing into darkness (images of my partner and I, a variety of hand gestures, and references to interior spaces). My intention is to evoke a melancholy and unsettling atmosphere rather than a narrative. There is a banality in the subjects and objects portrayed, brought together with a melodramatic gloom, a rendering of melancholy so much absorbed in itself that it becomes possibly a bit funny. This project is an intuitive depiction of anticipatory grief (the anticipation of loss and the sensation of grieving before actual loss) that stem specifically from a personal experience but I hope that the work will convey to others a relatable sort of fear of the unknown or the end, a desire to try to pinpoint and make tangible a feeling of dread and uncertainty, and a "celebration" of sadness that aims to reach catharsis"--Artist's website.

"Ever wanted to know what it feels like to be pregnant on public transportation? This autobiographical comic takes you on an adventure through it all. An intimate and witty analysis on public manners, social accountability, and the patriarchy. Includes shocking “accountability photos” of people who refused to offer Johnson a seat during her third trimester, and a “highly unscientific” analysis of the types of people who did offer her this courtesy. She also ventures some answers as to why some did, and what the simple act of offering a pregnant lady a seat has to do with anything and everything"-- Booklyn website (accessed May 10.2022).

"Pandemic Chronicles, Volume 1 is a multidisciplinary, multimedia book created in response to emergent cultural circumstances and the histories of social injustice that helped precipitate them. It is authored by the Pandemic Poetics Collective (Esther Belin, Titus Brooks Heagins, Mahogany L. Browne, André Leon Gray, Olmeca, ursula rucker, Jess X. Snow, and Chip Thomas, aka jetsonorama) and features additional work by Emory Douglas, Thea Gahr and others. Initiated by an invitation from Chip Thomas, this project brings together a diverse group of artists to collectively bear witness, in solidarity, to this unprecedented moment in our shared histories. Originally designed as a means for participating artists to collaboratively respond to how the current pandemic is disproportionately affecting their communities, Pandemic Chronicles, Volume 1 quickly blossomed into an opportunity for the participants to offer their combined creative strength to a growing, international uprising against white supremacy and state violence"-- Nicole Archer, Editor, Art Journal Open, Booklyn website

"Launched in 2017, Thrive created a space for people impacted by sexual and domestic violence to grow, learn and heal as a community. This zine catalogues the phenomenal facilitators who led one year of workshops. This series was organised by Gather Together, FORCE's Baltimore based collective of survivors committed to fostering a network of people building a city where rape no longer exists. Gather Together was born out of FORCE's commitment to affirming and centering survivor voices"--Page [3].

"We tend to think of grief as the absence of something we've lost, but when grief is considered as an animal, any animal, it becomes a presence in our lives instead. This animal is our animal to observe, to cohabitate with, to care for in some capacity. This animal will change over time; what it needs from us will vary and our interactions will shift. If you haven't answered it for yourself yet, what animal is your grief today?"--Page [3].
"What form would your grief take if it were an animal? This zine explores grief as an animal through a braided essay, poetry, and visual artwork from various authors and artists. I spent the better part of a year contemplating this idea, based on my own experience of grief as a shapeshifting presence in my life"--From the author's Etsy shop.
