PROJECT CONCEPT: “Political Botanicals”
Format: Experimental poster series, zine, public installation
Theme: Soft rage meets ecological resistance
Tone: Feminist, poetic, haunting, confrontational

Target Audience:
This work is made for the people who feel too much. The overthinkers, the art school dropouts, the ones who read Audre Lorde and compost their grief. It’s for the quiet radicals—the femmes, queers, immigrants, and neurodivergent thinkers who live at the intersection of burnout and beauty. It speaks to the generation that inherited climate collapse, fascism creep, and the algorithm—and still decided to plant something anyway.

They’re not looking for answers. They’re looking for proof they’re not alone in feeling the absurdity. This work is a mirror, a moodboard, and a flare gun.

Where it lives:

• Public wheatpasting across city walls, abandoned buildings, and protest routes

• A limited-run zine printed on risograph or recycled paper, distributed at art book fairs or radical bookstores

• Instagram/TikTok carousel posts (with analog video overlays, torn paper transitions, layered textures) to preserve the physicality of the prints

• Collaboration with activist orgs or eco-anarchist collectives to adapt the posters into rally visuals or downloadable PDFs

• Art school or gallery installations where viewers can take a print, sit with the weight of the words, or add their own

Expansion potential:

• An interactive map of where each poster lives or was spotted

• A submission form for people to remix the poster phrases with their own poetry

• QR codes on posters linking to soundscapes, spoken word, or mini-documentaries
