Someone said my art is a break from politics and for the record: my art is political

In a world where billionaires at the top aerospace companies see space as exclusive ground for white men to conquer and colonize, I offer a quiet contemplative alternative for anyone and *everyone*

Detail of a yarn bowl showing an astronaut repairing a spacecraft above them and attached to a tether that leads to the yarn feed. Serving bowl featuring two astronauts helping each off the ground in the distance near a crashed spaceship, while debris is scattered around the middle and foreground on the cracking surface of a barren moon.

I am giving away a print as a thank you to everyone who has been following along & supporting me on my journey transitioning from a research scientist to full-time space artist.

I’ll draw a lucky winner from my email list at random on November 13th. You’ll get a print of Spectrum of Chaos!

a digital redraw of gustav klimt's "the kiss" where a green wireframe man embraces a demure android woman, kissing her cheek. classic windows 98 UI styled patterns adorn their clothes. the man's drapery features a bunch of overlapping windows, all with gibberish text and inverted colors. the woman's dress is filled with lots of different desktop icons in varying sizes.

The cheapest plan available to me (a Georgian) is over $1,000 a month. Healthcare is no longer an option for me. I will ration the medication I take for as long as I can and then I will wait to die.

We're socialized to constantly apologize for being too outwardly excited about things, but this world is so full of terror and misery that I'd rather see those bursts of light and passion shine through the cracks wherever you can find them.

Let me be clear — there are contingency funds available to fully fund SNAP while we are in this Republican shutdown.

But what is Trump doing? He’s doing everything in his power to withhold these benefits, making Americans go hungry.

This year has been hard, navigating life under an increasingly authoritarian regime. More corruption, more distortion. But we can still create with honesty. And I get to do that for a living bc you all support my work. I'm so so grateful.

I hope you spend a little time art-making too 💫
