白沙《 white sand 》

my home is missing the smell of baisha cigarettes and regret. i wonder if motherland dreams of the diasporic, or if dreaming is synonymous with the hurt. UNTIL DEATH DO US PART homage to a tradition in which love and death walk hand in hand; light my cigarette so i can microdose death like a sickly child crawling home to mother — if death is yearned for, where is the motherland?

Happy Year of the Snakes ! Every year I try to design a poster celebrating the new year, even more of a ritualistic practice now that I live alone.

Had a lot of fun with this design, and this process. Using a limited color palette inspired by the colors available at my local community-run risograph printer(s) at The Long Haul/Reprographixxx in Berkeley, CA, I tried to invoke and replicate the effect of riso printing. Colors used are Black #000, Bright Red #F15060, Flourescent Pink #FF48B0, Sunflower #FFB511, and Seafoam #62C2B1.

It's been a long time since I've used colors this bright, and it was a lot of fun working in the limited palette while also paying careful attention to colors that invoke the spirit of the new year (red, yellows, greens).

Desideratarama Attention (nothing is free) Go shattered and fucked in confusion amid the chaotic death and remember there's no peace in silence Be on good terms with few people Scream your bloody murder as truth Interrupt the the speech of the dull and ignorant Their story is poison Find a loud and aggressive friend it may help your dying spirit Compare yourself to others Become vain and bitter Everyone is afflicted and shitsmeared Dismiss your achievements & plans they are meaningless Keep abandoning your career however humble it is an unreal possession in changing time Be all those people you are Discard the shield that protects you from distress Your imaginings of Monsters are real Be hard on yourself & paranoid of the universe At war with God Chaos in your soulhole With all its blood lies & death This naziworld is hell Get a gun Stay on your toes Try to survive Get ready to die (found in a vomit soaked pew in old st. devil church before it was destroyed in baltimore, dated: 1490)
