calling for artists and creative people supporting palestine!

(making a new post because my last one lacked details) so i'm part of a prison abolition collective in seattle, wa, usa that is holding a raffle to fundraise for a palestinian family trying to survive genocide and cross the border into egypt, which requires paying hugely exorbitant fees. more info in the instagram post at the end

we're looking for people who can donate creative items, skillshares, experiences, and offerings. there is not a specific theme or limitation to what the items can be. items do not have to be directly related to solidarity with palestine, but we reserve the right to not accept items that go directly against our missions and values as abolitionists and co-conspirators to palestinian liberation. some examples of things you could offer:

a physical piece of art

a birdwatching guided walk

a signed copy of your book or chapbook

tattooing services

feedback on a short story or manuscript

...or whatever else you want to propose!

items should be deliverable by early march; if shipping costs to seattle are a hinderance for you, we may be able to help. anything in-person that you are offering must be in western washington.

if you are interested, PLEASE FILL OUT THIS FORM!

(and if you fill out the part about where you heard this from, please say "deepa" instead of my tumblr name slkdfjksldjf)

📣 CALL FOR ARTISTS 📣

Hi!

I’m Ludovico, I’m a graphic designer student currently working on my graduation thesis. I’m looking for queer creators to collab on the project which is going to be a queer magazine named “Kwir” about subjects that are often left aside such as trans people, being poly, the drag panorama and so on…

All the contents of the magazine must be made just by queer artists because I want the magazine to be, in a world where we don’t have much space, a safe place to make our voices be heard and our works displayed. The number 0 of “Kwir” will hopefully be printed and distributed from April so the goal is to sell it in independent bookshops or queer shops in the future. I hope we can build a bigger and bigger team of creators to work on this to make it become a reality and a support chain for queer youth. The aim is for “Kwir” to become a project that will evolve and grow and continue to exist with more than just one published number. Since I’m a student I don’t have any funds at the moment so it’s a non-paid work but your works will be visible since it’s going to be published (and as I was saying the idea is to make it become a real thing for the upcoming years as well!). So, every content of the magazine will have the name of the creator to make your works gain visibility and for you to get known.

Let’s talk now about the structure of the magazine!

Each section of the magazine will have some articles and some visual contents as well.

Articles are going to be experiences and thoughts about each subject written by different people so, for example, subject 1 “Gender identity and sexual orientation” is going to be discussed from different point of views by more than one person. Person x will talk about their view about subject 1, as well as person y and person z so that an internal dialogue will take place about the same subject from different perspectives. If you are a queer person who has something to say about these subjects or if you like to write or even if you studied photojournalism, you could take part to the project this way!

On the other side if you are an artist, you can collab by creating visual contents and those can be anything: poems, photographs, illustrations, sketches, sculptures, tattoos and so on… They can be new or previously published contents; the only limitation is that they need to be related to the topics covered in the issue 0 of the magazine, which are the following: gender identity and sexual orientation; drag queens and the drag panorama in Italy; HIV and why schools should talk about it in the right way; the importance of language and pronouns for everyone; what’s the alternative world from cishet; sex work is work; trans lives, AFAB-AMAB and the word transexual; why a queer support network is fundamental and websites that can help; being poly: monogamy is not the only choice.

These are the primary topics to be covered in issue 0, which gives you an idea of the magazine's internal structure, including various themes that may often intersect with one another.

If you are a queer artist and would love to take part to the project text me! If you have any other question, I’m here to answer them all! I hope to hear from you soon, have a great day :)

Apple a Day vol. 2 is happening now! The theme of vol. 2 is Rainy Days🍏

So there's a small but exciting chance that I'll be publishing a chapbook with a small press. I have no idea what I want to do for the cover, or how much control I even have over the whole thing, but if you want to check out my poetry and my aesthetic and you feel some affinity - message me?

Like, seriously.

GET YOUR ART ON MY CHAPBOOK COVER.
