Every Ecosystem but the Ecosystem patches, imagining a world after police with lessons from ecology. We keep each other safe. 1/2 the proceeds from sales of this patch go to @officialblmp - the Black LQBTQIA+ Migrant Project of the @translawcenter . Just sent another donation yesterday, posting for transparency. Thank you all so much for the support!

I'm so pleased to announce my first material colla

I'm so pleased to announce my first material collaboration with @nourjanpresents and present to you this super rad tote bag conceptualized by their team and brought to artisanal life here at Entangled Roots Press. Most of you probably know who I am by now, so allow me to introduce you to them.

Nour Jan Presents is a multi-sensory platform promoting the intangible cultural heritage of Armenian diaspora. Its latest endeavor is the recently released podcast 'This Diaspora Life', which uses oral histories and archival music to do ethnographic deep dives into different diaspora communities around the world. First season, Armenian diaspora. First stop, Beirut, as made evident by the trailer in this post.

The team is now on the ground in Los Angeles producing episode 2 and prepping for their next stops in Buenos Aires, Athens, and Addis Ababa. So if you dig the tote bag and want one for yourself, head to the link in my bio. A portion of the proceeds earned from this batch will help aid the Nour Jan team in their efforts to preserve our ancestral inheritance.

Be sure to follow their page where they will continue to chronicle their journey through sonic and visual means, broadcasting episodes of their podcast with their comrades at different community-led radio stations across the world.

Studio photo with my baby, aka the worst studio assistant ever. Trying this again with a sacrifice to the algorithm gods. I'm have a sale in my online shop and in my stories! Swipe to see the details. Thanks y'all!

I'm having a sale in my online shop until December 7th. 🍂☀️ Get 15 percent off when you enter the code "autumnalsun" at checkout. I'm also currently (11/30) having a sale in my stories! I don't really consider myself a business but just an artist who would like to share their work with you, support my communities in a way that brings joy and spread messages of liberation. Not of my choosing I will be stepping into a life where I am going to be trying to survive most solely off my work, which I have wanted to do for a long time, but it's still scary. 99 percent of my work is hand made- the illustrations, carving, type setting and printing- all done by hand. Thank you all for the love and support. It means so much.

New zine! 🌾🌾🌾 One of the oldest and most

New zine! 🌾🌾🌾

One of the oldest and most iconic breads of Armenia is Lavash, a traditional thin flatbread, and it is a venerable and enduring symbol of Armenian heritage. This zine touches upon the history, ethnobotany, etymology, folktales, cultural importance and the process of making Lavash.

The cover is hand screen printed and the zine is saddle stitch bound. The internal pages are digitally printed, the illustrations are originally sumi ink.

This special first edition has screen printed gold highlights on each illustrated page.

Also reprinted an updated version of my Char atchk screen print!

The evil eye, or char atchk in Armenian, is a curse believed to be cast by a malevolent glare, usually given to a person when they aren’t looking. The nazar, a blue amulet with an eye in the middle, is worn, carried or displayed to ward off this evil and protect us from harm. I have used this traditional symbol combined with the symbol of Antifa, anti-fascists, who do the work of warding off the evil of fascism and other forms of bigotry and hatred.

Three layer screen print.
