경’s commitments: community herb guy, jaded street medic, leather worker, and welder-in-training (they want to build metal structures / are learning the trades for the people they love). They live on Peoria, Potawatomi, Miami, Sioux, Kickapoo, and Kaskaskia lands in South Side Chicago. They are a co-steward for Freedom Fighter Herbs (FFH), a small abolitionist mutual aid collective intended to support and respond to local QTBIPOC care workers, land stewards, and beloved kin living under empire-sanctioned violence. FFH is currently based out of a learning apothecary and herbal garden at the Breathing Room. Their poetry appears in some places.

Here is a small scattering selection (7, for someone’s good luck):

“Wasn’t this a foto website or whatever…?”

yeah, a while ago. foto-making is all about trust. after the deepest collapses in my life thus far, i am no longer making photographic and archival work as of 2022.01.26. i have not picked up my film camera since, and i do not believe this will change in the future. if you wanna talk about it, i'm open. that is, depending on your intentions. i still grieve foto-making (and the relationships it brought me) as a practice i once loved. do not enter this conversation with me lightly.

a brief note to all the people who used to make with me: all images made together and delivered to you in some form, especially images with your likeness / portrait, belong exclusively to you. i will not be further editing or publishing them on this website or anywhere in the world, physical or digital, without your direct & explicit consent. you own that archival, so you may choose to do with it whatever you wish. thank you for believing in something with me in their making, however fleeting.
