#williammorris gloriousness!!!!! Awhiiiiiile back I ordered these when it become quickly clear that my vintage #artnouveau patterns were super popular. I've been obsessed with the #preraphaelite movement since I was a romantic teenager and I actually embroidered some of these very prints back when sage was a little baby. And now you can wear one! (Well...in a couple weeks). 🖤🌈🖤🌈🖤🌈 🖤 🖤 🖤 To buy please visit my Etsy shop or visit link in profile: https://www.etsy.com/shop/NaliniAshaArt #naliniasha #naliniashaart #autisticartist #actuallyautistic #neuroqueer #biogoth #neorococo #sandiegoartist #sandiegoart #colortheory #phenomenology #rainbow #spectrum #masks #facemasks #handmaid #etsy #stitchbitch #supportnurses (at San Diego, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDNbKqYjZmD/?igshid=1kz8p8a3oqs2t

If you're in LA go check out the incredible artwork by Nikkolas Smith which is displayed on billboards. He's one of my favorite contemporary artists! #Repost @nikkolas_smith • • • • • • Los Angeles, California Wow! As a Black artist, this is a surreal moment for me. @Converse has given me the opportunity to publicly share my artistic perspective on the priceless value of Black lives. They shifted their latest Fall campaign plans and decided to grant their billboard spaces to me, as part of their commitment to amplify the voices of Black creatives around the world. 🙏🏾 So if you happen to be strolling through Downtown Los Angeles, East Hollywood, or Silverlake, you can now have a city walkthrough of some of my work from the last seven years. 🤯😭 Thank you to all of you for sharing my art over the years! You’ve helped make moments like this a reality. Special thank you to @KristinDoerrer18 and the Converse team, and to Jian Allen! @yesthatjian 👊🏾✨ 📸 by @CassiusPettit #BlackLivesBuiltAmerica #ConverseAllStar #BlackLivesMatter #StopWars #SundaySketch #NikkolasSmith #Converse x #NIKKOLAS https://www.instagram.com/p/CC1Ucw6jJHZ/?igshid=kyu5acdufipd

This is an amazing opportunity! 🖤🖤🖤 "There is movement. In the air and on the ground. Movement in bodies gathering together in collective demand for change or fleeing threat. Movement in the travel of language within and across boundaries and borders, carrying histories and horizons. Movement in the dense networks of everyday social relation evoking our mutual responsibility and reliability. Movement that precludes and makes possible. On Friday, July 17, at 12:00 pm PDT, join UCHRI on Zoom for Race at Boiling Point: Movement We Make, a conversation with Patrisse Cullors (co-founder, Black Lives Matter/Dignity and Power Now), Ruth Wilson Gilmore (City University of New York), AbdouMaliq Simone (University of Sheffield), Rafeef Ziadah (University of London), and moderator Avery Gordon (UC Santa Barbara).
